A little bit about me...

My goal is to create memorable product experiences to keep users coming back for more. I achieve this by putting myself in their shoes to ease pain points, take the time to understand feedback and quantify what makes the product great.

I’ve zapped bugs, written user stories, facilitated team ceremonies and prioritised an epic portfolio. I guess you could call me a Product Hybrid.

How I work...

I thrive off of an energetic environment and a team that is results driven. I love working for teams and businesses that have a family-esque feel that get down and dirty to get the job done. I can work on my own but know how to spark up motivation within a team. I’m a social and likeable person who loves to bring out the best in everybody and help them open up. I actually enjoy the product role rather than just turning up for the paycheck and love to mentor. I turn up to company events and socials because I think team bonding and rapport is important.

Skills I possess...

Agile Methodologies, Scrum, Kanban, Scrumban, Figma, Balsamiq, Sketch, Photoshop, Jira, Trello, Asana, Miro, Lucidchart, Confluence, Google Docs Suite, Microsoft Office, WordPress, Elementor, FTP, DNS Management, WooCommerce, Typeform, Insomnia, Postman, JSON, XML, RESTful API, Google Analytics, Hotjar, SQL, HTML, CSS, Gherkin.

Product Portfolio

Below is a selection of my favourite projects and cases that I have had the pleasure of working on.

Online Car Sales

Live Chat Integration

React Native Mobile App

Multi-Property WordPress

My first major project at GForces was to head up the creation of an end-to-end used vehicle sales platform now branded NetDirector Auto-e. I worked with multidisciplinary teams to take the platform from paper concept to live. I prioritised MVP features using a method called WSJF (Weighted Shortest Job First) which required direct input from stakeholders and the team to determine the quickest and most effective route to delivery.

This was an industry-first product which enables users to purchase a vehicle online with a full end-to-end transaction flow. We used external integrations such as the CAP HPI API to gather accurate government vehicle data alongside Codeweavers API’s to enable the user to apply for car finance online.

Auto-e is now used across the GForces customer base which ranges from regular car dealerships to OEM’s such as Jaguar Land Rover, Vauxhall and more…

Coming soon…

Esports Portfolio

This section will detail my esports experience, projects and more. Anybody who is connected on LinkedIn will already know I have a diehard passion for esports. For those unfamiliar with the term – esports is the term used to describe playing video games competitively.
