About

Product & AI design lead with 17 years of experience building scalable digital products across healthcare, enterprise SaaS, government, and global consumer brands. I specialise in AI-native workflows, systems thinking, UX architecture, experimentation, and rapid prototyping, helping teams move quickly while keeping products intuitive, scalable, and commercially effective.

Across Jane.app, Scan.com, Squiz, and Flipside Group, I’ve led initiatives spanning enterprise DXP platforms, healthcare products, AI-assisted design systems, native applications, and customer-facing experiences used by organisations including Santander, Sainsbury’s, Coca-Cola, Suzuki, Papa Johns, Sage, MSI, and the UK Government. I’m known for bringing teams together, simplifying complexity, and creating products that feel human whilst delivering measurable business impact.
