With over 20 years of experience in the digital industry, I am a senior specialist who combines high-level business strategy with the hands-on creation of modern software. I bridge the gap between "big picture" company goals and the actual interfaces needed to achieve them.
- Continuous Innovation & Learning: I have a naturally curious mindset and a long history of leading "Innovation" departments, where my job was to research and test new ideas. I am dedicated to staying ahead of the curve, regularly keeping myself up-to-date with the latest industry trends and teaching myself new skills to ensure a business always uses the most effective solutions.
- Rapid Product Launch: I have a proven track record of building working versions of new web applications in as little as 7 to 8 weeks. This speed is crucial for startups looking to attract investors or sign their first paying customers.
- Experienced Leadership: I don’t just build tools; I build teams. I have managed departments, led offshore teams, and introduced better ways of working that improve staff morale and productivity.
- Customer-Focused Design: I ensure that the "front end" of a product, the part the customer actually sees and touches, is easy to use, visually appealing, and accessible to everyone, including people with disabilities.
- Efficiency & Cost Savings: By modernising old systems and improving how teams work, I have successfully reduced running costs and improved the speed at which businesses can release new features.
