Background

Louise has spent more than two decades in enterprise technology, across cybersecurity, software, strategic sales and channel development. Most recently she was Sales Director, Security for Northern Europe at VMware, where she grew a security business from about four people to more than fifty. Earlier, she led the Palo Alto Networks division at Westcon Security and co-founded VW Technology.

She has built enterprise sales strategies and complex routes to market, and has experience in coaching, mentoring and leadership development.

She speaks fluent French and Spanish, and holds a BA in Modern European Languages from Durham University.

Louise was diagnosed with MS in 2020. She later stepped away from a demanding career in enterprise technology to put her health and her family first. The experience shaped how she thinks about patient agency, and about how organisations can use technology to include people living with long-term conditions.
