About me

A builder who leads, a leader who builds

I'm a highly motivated Technical Project Manager with over a decade of experience spanning Branding & Advertising, Product Development, Project Management, and Data Analysis.

My career has taken me from system administration and web development through quality engineering and into technical project leadership at scale — with a focus on publisher integrations, ad tech platforms, and cross-functional team delivery.

I'm known for my strong communication, leadership, and organisational skills, and my ability to adapt quickly to new challenges and environments.
