02 / How I work
I know which parts compress and which ones do not.
I have done every part of this job myself.
01
Discovery
Talk to the people with the problem. Where the data is thin, go and get it.
02
Strategy
Mostly deciding what not to build. Roadmaps fail on subtraction far more often than addition.
03
Design
I still work in the file: wireframes, flows, design systems and prototypes.
04
Delivery
Look at the real constraints with engineers. Cut scope early, not late.
05
Measurement
Instrument before launch so the outcome becomes a fact rather than an argument.

03 / About
Large-company rigour. Small-company pace.
A decade of my career was spent contracting inside other people’s organisations. The years since have been spent running product on my own account.
Large-company work taught me how to move something through a bank. Small-company work taught me how much can be done in a week.
