Founded Kocha to bring pro-level match analysis to grassroots football.

I am always on the search for the best ideas bubbling around environment, technology and design. Once we've found them, we have the team to implement, pixel perfect, smile inducing goodness.

I led a team of excellent software engineers, geospatial developers, designers and product managers. I helped people figure out the important things from the not so important things. I try to help scientist and government/non-government people share their knowledge and data on the web. We built applications mapping every national park on the planet, tracked the trade of endangered species, made ocean data publicly and freely available, apps for scientists to monitor mangrove forests and tools… Show more I led a team of excellent software engineers, geospatial developers, designers and product managers.

Product managed protectedplanet.net, led the team that curated the national park data (world database on protected areas). Early adopter of positioning sustainability data as an open public good, built technology in an open source way, using agile project management. Geospatial developer on the side.

Scientific researcher / geospatial modellerBuilt modelling software to predict the movement of North Sea Cod, figuring out where fishing boats go through modelling vessel movement from satellite tracking (VMS), field work on research cruises and modelling habitats range of butterflyfish. Wrote a few papers, contributed to more.
