In projects, I help clients retool their value propositions, service offerings and customer experiences to achieve a better fit with the future. How the client's business works, what their goals are, what their value chain looks like, what's happening in their sector, how should we manage our teams and tackle our platform's technical debt – all of this informs how I work, from the product roadmap down into the details of our designs.
