What I Do
I work to bridge the gap between what a business needs and what its technology can deliver. I sit down with stakeholders to understand the problem, set out the options and their trade-offs in plain terms, and recommend a course of action drawn from experience rather than fashion. Then I stay hands-on: designing the architecture, working with your developers, and seeing it through to delivery.
