About

Who I am.

The hard part isn't building software. It's deciding what to build, when to ship it, and making sure it's worth the investment.

I build the frameworks, teams, and culture that make delivery scalable across enterprise SaaS platforms, multi-country R&D programs, and complex API integrations. High complexity, multiple stakeholders, real deadlines.

12 years doing this across travel tech, banking, telecom, sports tech and EU-funded R&D. The industries change. The approach scales.
