I have to say that her broad skills around creativity, UX and presenting are absolutely superb. Her articulation if the ideas always managed to gain our partners' trust quickly, and her work is speedy, diligent and on-point.

About

I've been thinking about how humans and technology find each other since I was 3. My dad used to carry a big bulky laptop everywhere so I could play on it — upgrading it year by year, bringing home children's games. I loved those games.

That curiosity became a Computer Science degree, a machine learning thesis, and a career designing AI and digital products for enterprises across the UK, EMEA, and APAC.

Along the way, another degree — Technology Innovation at Bristol — and programs at MIT and Harvard that sharpened how I think about building products.

For a period, I founded two ventures with designers and developers I trusted, one of them called Momentree still operates to this day. The education was in knowing when to move on.

I have been fortunate to move through the world widely — twenty-five countries across Asia, Africa, Australia, and Europe, from Iceland to Morocco, several revisited. It shapes the work in ways that are difficult to articulate and impossible to replicate any other way.
