Summary

With over a decade of experience across the sports betting and high-performance sport sectors, I have consistently delivered results through driving performance, innovation, and strategic growth. A key highlight of my career includes seven years working with Sir Andy Murray, where I contributed to his sustained success through data-driven performance analysis and strategic feedback.

Since transitioning to the sports betting sector in 2020, I have held various roles within Sportsbook, including my current role as the Sportsbook Global Product Lead. In this capacity, I actively oversee the end-to-end product lifecycle, define the strategic direction, manage cross-functional teams, and drive innovation to ensure the delivery of an exceptional product experience.
