Strategy to shipped product: UX, design, prototyping, and code.

I design B2B software worth building, and guide the team that ships it

Twenty years in product: research, validation, UX, delivery — and increasingly, guiding the teams doing it. Most of it on software with two audiences, the business that buys it and the person who has to use it. Now that includes AI products, and AI inside the work itself.

Full-stack now includes code: I design, prototype and ship with AI — and put the processes in place for your team to keep pushing after I'm gone.

Principles

The operating system behind every engagement.

Evidence before opinion

Research, testing and data settle decisions. Not the loudest voice in the room.

The smallest increment

Ship the smallest thing that proves the point, then build on what survives.

AI supports, it doesn’t lead

It takes the repetitive work. What to build, what to cut and what good looks like stays with people, in a room.

Simplify success, don’t complicate it

Technology should make the outcome easier to reach. If it adds friction, it is not finished.

Adoption is the finish line

Not satisfied until your customers are actively using what we built.

A Sydney AI startup for trades, backed by 500 Global. An AI receptionist that books the job. I run product end to end.

Blackpanda

UX and UI for a cyber security firm. Prioritisation workshops, a standardised Figma component set, and phased delivery.

What I do

Most of the work is in how people describe a problem — the friction, the motivation, the why behind the solution they think they want. Then deciding what gets built first, and making that core function simple enough to land. Prioritising and designing stop being separate jobs somewhere in there. I work the whole arc: first exposure, onboarding, retention, growth. These eleven are what I'm hired for most often.
