About Me

I'm a Lead Product Manager at the Government Digital Service, where I focus on creating high-quality digital products and services for the public good. I believe deeply in the power of thoughtful design and technology to improve people's lives and make government services more accessible and effective.

I'm passionate about how new tools and technologies can be used to create a world we all want to live in. Whether it's streamlining government services, improving user experiences, or solving complex problems through digital innovation, I'm driven by the potential for technology to serve society.

Outside of my professional work, I'm a musician and potter. These creative pursuits keep me grounded and inspire my approach to problem-solving in the digital realm. There's something beautiful about shaping clay with your hands that mirrors the iterative process of building great products.
