Hi!
I’m a curious, tinkering, cooking, software product manager and leader from Manchester in the UK. I’ve worked solo, founded companies, tried, failed, succeeded, built products, solved problems, led teams, been acquired, and had a lot of fun.
I’m currently looking for my next adventure, if I might be able to help you then please get in touch.
