About
Senior Design Manager and systems thinker with 10+ years leading managers and multi-disciplinary teams across platform, design-ops and AI-driven graph work. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with governors, academic leaders, entrepreneurs, and business owners, helping them navigate complex challenges through creativity, design, and a systematic approach.
My efforts have improved quality of life, founded a successful design institution, helped startups realise their vision, and developed products and services through strategic design and innovation.
I am in love with logic, innovation, and making. ▶︎ Download CV
