About
Turning ambiguous problems into structured, data-driven decisions.
I work at the intersection of business strategy, technology and data: mapping enterprise cloud requirements as a Customer Solutions intern at Amazon Web Services, developing a market-entry strategy for a London translation agency, and founding Cook4U, a platform connecting people with local home cooks and independent chefs.
I'm comfortable owning market research, competitive analysis, financial modelling and product decisions from idea through to launch, and equally at home in Python, JavaScript and SQL as in a boardroom deck.
