I believe technology and design has the power to change the way we live our lives and for experiences to become ever more personalised and engaging.
I have been told that the key to my success in developing business is my ability to talk in plain english, to put complex things in simple terms and ability to execute.
I'm hands on - the web and iOS / OSX development is my playground. I use code to communicate ideas, by making things tangible quickly and iterating the idea by getting it into the hands of real people.
I like micro-services architectures, API-first approaches and very focussed client applications and experiences.
I have a diverse perspective, having worked with small startup teams to large corporations across areas of Retail, Marketing and Digital Media and am comfortable from Board Level down.
I'm an experienced leader, managing cross-functional technical teams at senior/board level and I excel at product delivery with tight budgets and limited resources.
As part of the senior management team at BBD, I am responsible for the strategic direction of the digital offer within the agency, departmental P&L, project budgets and overall delivery quality.
I lead a team of engineers working with such clients as UBS, Zurich Insurance and Visa.Mixed workflow between Enterprise-CMS solutions (Tridion, Kentico etc.) and your shiny web projects static html / css / js, PHP based CMS projects, python / Django).
The thing I was most proud of was creating an educational programme for developers to learn design and designers to learn code, in order to improve our business culture, collaboration and remove the previous silos that hindered quality and productivity.
I was also a "Fixer", brought in to fix problem legacy projects that had managed to get out of hand and to work with all stakeholders for an effective resolution.
