Leading the creation and growth of digital products

About Me

I’m a Product Leader who loves working with teams to create digital products that genuinely help people. At the BBC I lead the teams building its core digital tools for content creators. Alongside that, I’ve built QuestPoint, a platform that lets visitor attractions run GPS-triggered quiz trails that visitors open in their phone browser, with no app.For over 20 years I’ve led cross-functional teams, created and grown national and international products, and helped large, complex organisations improve how they build and deliver digital experiences.What I care about stays the same whatever the product: clarity, trust and supporting people to grow. I focus on creating the conditions for teams to do their best work - removing complexity, building shared purpose and keeping user needs at the centre of every decision.I’m at my best in mission-driven environments where thoughtful products can make a meaningful difference.
