Specialist
I help organisations redesign operations and deliver practical technology solutions—from strategy and workflow design through to implementation.
About
Bridging business strategy, product and technology.
Over the past decade, I have worked across Amazon, GE Healthcare, consulting and start-up environments, translating strategic priorities into practical improvements in how organisations operate.
My experience spans operational transformation, supply chain forecasting, digital delivery and change management. I work with senior stakeholders and cross-functional teams to take complex programmes from strategy through to execution.
My advisory work is grounded in hands-on product and technical delivery, using AI and automation to evaluate technologies and provide practical guidance on the way forward. I have also founded and built independent technology products from concept to production, combining commercial ownership with end-to-end delivery.
