Strategy
I like to think about the “big picture”, what the future might bring, and how we can make things happen:
- Developing long-term vision and objectives, focusing on impact and relevance.
- Using wide industry knowledge, technology expertise, and integration skills to create complex products.
- Building business cases based on user needs and implementing across organisations.
Technology
Technology is my passion. Empowering me to build products, be creative and drive innovation:
- Technology advocate, enthusiastic about its benefits to society, organisations and individuals.
- Expertise in the development and management of enterprise level digital products.
- Wide range of experience with different platforms, programming languages and the digital eco-system.
Data
I use data to understand customers better, remove the guess work and build better products:
- Using analytics, user research and testing to drive better product decisions.
- Data management and integration to provide unique insights and opportunities.
- Data visualisation to aid investigation, analysis and reporting.
