About me.

People I've worked with would tell you I'm engaging, empathetic and balanced. I care about taking people along for the ride, so I communicate a lot and stay as open as I can. I take risks and decide quickly, but on data, not gut instinct. And I'm not satisfied with good: I want to deliver great.

I do my best work in a business I care about, early-stage or growing fast, where I can get my hands dirty and help shape direction. I care about the mission and I care about the people, customers and team alike, because the biggest influence on a customer's experience is always the people and systems delivering it.

Outside work I play basketball and keep fit, I'm a big film nerd, and whenever I can you'll find me at a gig.
