I help teams make sense of complex products
I bring together product strategy, business analysis and computer science to turn complex business and technical problems into clear product direction.
Career
Aviat Networks
I work with users, product managers and engineers to understand complex telecom workflows, clarify requirements and turn them into product decisions the team can build.
JNCTN
I worked across discovery, product strategy and frontend enablement for digital identity products. A big part of the job was making difficult technical concepts easier to understand and use.
Ministry of Social Development
I researched how teams worked, mapped workflows and brought people together around practical changes for Jira modernisation and the Cloud Business Office.
MSc First Class Honours
Computer and Information Sciences at Auckland University of Technology. My research covered data science, interaction design, Python and computer vision.
KPMG
I ran workshops and created workflows and prototypes for enterprise, manufacturing and customer-facing systems in KPMG's Innovation Lab.
Freelance Portfolio
Independent product and development work across web applications, responsive interfaces and data-rich digital experiences.
Product strategy grounded in computer science
My work sits between product strategy, business analysis and software. I'm comfortable asking broad questions at the start, getting into technical detail with engineers and staying involved until the work is shipped. Over the past ten years I've worked across telecommunications, government and other regulated industries.
