Summary

As an experienced product Leader with a passion for helping organisations build product-focused cultures, I have honed my expertise in mobile, web, and data products across a variety of industries.

With a proven track record of delivering successful products that drive growth and profitability.

My career began with a focus on mobile products, where I quickly developed a deep understanding of the technical and strategic considerations necessary to build compelling mobile experiences. From there, I expanded my focus to include web and data products, leveraging my expertise to help organisations unlock the value of their data and build more impactful digital products.

Throughout my career, I have worked with organisations across a range of markets, including regulated industries such as insurance, where my experience navigating complex regulatory environments has proven invaluable.

With a passion for innovation and a deep understanding of the product development process, I am dedicated to helping organisations build product-focused cultures that empower their teams to create transformative digital experiences.

Whether working with startups or established enterprises, I bring a collaborative and results-driven approach to every engagement, helping organisations realise their vision and achieve their goals.
