About me
A researcher’s curiosity.
A delivery lead’s perspective.
My experience spans utilities, banking, oil and gas, and logistics. I have helped establish UX practices, built shared libraries, mentored teams and worked with stakeholders across Asia and Europe.
A background in computing helps me bridge user needs and technical feasibility. I’m comfortable discussing a research finding with a designer, a dependency with an architect, or a priority with a business stakeholder.
