🌟 Service Designer | Business Growth Strategist | Award-Winning Entrepreneur | Edinburgh Fringe Showrunner | BEM RecipientWith over a decade of hands-on experience, I've spent my career at the intersection of service design, management, and business growth, specializing in the Hospitality and Entertainment sectors. As the Founder and Director of Goose's Quizzes, I've transformed a university startup into Scotland's largest quiz company and one of the most significant players in the UK quiz landscape.🎓 Educational Background: Armed with a Masters in Interaction Design, my focus on Service Design serves as the cornerstone of my business approach. It's not just about providing a service; it's about designing experiences that people love and remember.🏅 Notable Achievements: My work has not gone unnoticed. I am humbled to have been awarded the British Empire Medal for running free global online quizzes during the pandemic. The peak of my career (so far!) was orchestrating a 23-night run at the 2023 Edinburgh Fringe Show—a project that required months of meticulous planning and execution.🌍 Team & Collaboration: Working with a diverse and talented team is key to filling in the gaps and amplifying strengths. I have focused on building teams that complement and challenge me, setting the stage for innovation and continual growth.💡 Philosophy & Values: At the core, I'm driven by Innovation and a desire to push the boundaries of what's possible in my field. But what sets me apart is my people-centric approach. I relish in creating experiences that not only engage but delight.🛠️ Future Goals: Leveraging the hard-earned lessons from over 12 years in business, my next mission is to improve other businesses, enriching the Hospitality and Entertainment sectors with the insights I've gained.🏉 Personal Interests: When I'm not steering the ship at Goose's Quizzes or running Fringe shows, you'll find me engrossed in a Rugby match or working on lowering my golf handicap.Let's connect and explore opportunities to collaborate!
