I started as a freelancer designing interfaces, teaching and running social media campaigns for anybody who had an ask or a need. Seventeen years later that work has grown into a career spanning Product Management, Competition Research, Executive Strategy, UX leadership, supporting contract vehicles worth over $1B for systems of national interest, and carrying a startup through a multi-million dollar exit.
It's been a phenomenal ride.

Every mark is one real project. Group, colour, reshape, filter and sort them; pick any mark with a pointer, a finger, or the keyboard to open it. Undisclosed marks are client work not yet cleared for naming — their type, domain and role data are real.
Started as a one-person shop designing interfaces and running social media. Built the craft, the speed and the client instinct that everything since has run on.
02
Competition & research analyst
Tracked competitors and emerging technology, synthesized the signal from the noise, and packaged it into decision-ready intelligence for product and executive audiences — the research discipline that still anchors how I work.
03
Product & UX leadership
Grew into directing product management, research and design practices across multiple solution teams, and mentoring the people running them.
04
Systems of national interest
Supported contract vehicles worth over $1B across research, health and education. Directly contributed to winning a $548m contract vehicle bid and reduced design and development hours roughly 35% with a custom multi-framework design system.
05
Success, onto the next
Carried a startup through a multi-million dollar exit. Now helping companies define success, capture opportunities, achieve objectives and deliver key results.

The practice
Three lanes, one operator: find out, make it, land it.
Most people sit in one of these. The reason the federal work landed is that the same person carried a project from the research question through the interface to the compliance sign-off.

Building now
Independent builds, on everything above.
Both are pre-launch, so there is nothing to click yet. The federal work above is what I have built for others. These are what I am building now.

Multi-agent business automation
Production multi-agent systems, currently being re-themed from a general GenAI platform onto a tailored SMB offering.
Two products off one agent core. The first is a business workflow automation and collaboration platform on a three-tier subscription. The second is a vendor/seller operating system.
The agent tech is already running in production: crawler and agent clusters for local information, news and events; a live-knowledge cluster that keeps searched and saved topics current; and workflow and discovery assistants.

Entertainment media property
An independent entertainment web property — built, branded and run end to end under Digital Nomad Consulting.
One of the independent builds in the catalogue: concept, identity, responsive site and publishing workflow, owned across every discipline rather than handed between teams.
Part of the same independent-practice thread as the rest of the Digital Nomad Consulting work in the portfolio explorer.
