I’m a Forbes 30u30 founder and CEO, with 10+ years’ experience starting and scaling tech companies in both the UK and US markets.
Over the years, I’ve:
- Taken products from 0 to seven-figure ARR
- Raised multiple rounds of funding (inc. from VCs)
- Built profitable, lean operations with small, high-performing teams
I’ve led both B2B and B2C products. Like most founders, I’ve worn plenty of hats (across product, sales, hiring, people management, fundraising, user research, and the inevitable fire-fighting that comes with building something from scratch). This has given me a practical understanding of what it really takes to run a business end-to-end.
Areas of expertise:
- Validating new products and finding early product-market fit
- Navigating pivots and evolving business models
- Building capital-efficient, profitable companies
- Operating across both UK and US go-to-market environments
Philosophy:
- I’m a big believer in paying it forward and sharing insights with other founders
- I’ve often found myself informally guiding founders over the years
- I genuinely enjoy helping people think clearly through the challenges of building and scaling
5 out of 5 stars
After just three sessions with Darrell I am already getting a lot of value from Darrell's ability to ask the right questions, to think outside the box, from his years of experience, and all of that nudges me in the right direction and gets me to think about stuff I didn't have on my mind before. I'm really looking forward for our future sessions!
