Work highlights
Digital Products
My focus is rooted in end-to-end delivery, data-driven strategy, and collaborative team leadership.
By using active and passive research methods to uncover friction points and create moments of joy, I translate user insights into actionable roadmaps that validate business assumptions, streamline development, and drive long-term guest satisfaction.
Live Experiences
Building live events and entertainment that ignite audience engagement.
Utilising storytelling to create environments that encourage in-person connection and brand loyalty whilst working to strict timelines and budgets.
Strategy & Innovation
Working alongside organisations to enhance their experience strategy by unifying physical and digital offerings into a single guest journey.
