Experience

  • Play in the Grey
    Product Director
    October 2022 - Today (3 years and 8 months)
    Before I started working with Product Management tools, every IT project I was on failed. Teams and organisations were not giving value to the things that really mattered. There was a grey area between the IT department and the business that no one knew how to cross. With my approach to Product Management, I can work with your organisation and teams to figure out what is getting in getting in the way of your delivery. I bring over 12 years experience working across different technologies, on internally and externally facing products, right from vision and strategy, though discovery and onto dual track discovery and delivery.
