About me
Having spent six years working in marketing and communications roles that focus on engaging audiences and actively championing their needs, I feel that a position in digital product development is a natural career progression for me. One of my greatest strengths is my desire to help people develop solutions to the challenges they are facing. I enjoy listening to people, and having in depth discussions with them to determine not only the solution, but also the full nature of the problem they are looking to resolve. I’m naturally curious and I want to find out all I can about projects that I am working on, which has led me to develop advanced research and analysis skills, as well as the ability to consider my work objectively. I have experience in a range of organisations including museums, higher education establishments and commercial enterprises. This has given me a wide range of skills, and taught me about both B2B and B2C business.
