Reading, Berkshire , Gb

I returned back to the UK in 1999 to join a team that launched the very first Digital Cable product in the UK market. With my traditional TV experience, it was my first experience of Technology and I developed a great perspective on both traditional and new media. Working as a Product Manager for NTL (later to become Virgin Media) I helped to define and launch a set of core customer services (via the remote control) on the set-top-box (hardware). This role introduced me to the core principles behind User Interface design, whilst working with the technology constraints of the hardware.

Straight after graduating from University I moved to Santiago, Chile to further my personal and professional development. Without any Spanish at that time, I managed to get a role with a local TV production company, building on the experience gained at MTV. I was part of a team that developed a set of television shows broadcast on a weekly basis. My role included research, production and post production. I also helped the business acquire new commercial partners and sponsors. This role really helped to kick-off my passion for storytelling.
