01 / About

Builder by nature.
Leader by experience.
Creative by instinct.

I work across engineering, solution architecture and digital transformation at North East Lincolnshire Council, helping turn complex services into clearer, more useful experiences.

Over more than a decade in technology, I’ve moved from hands-on development to shaping platforms, leading teams and connecting technology strategy with user-centred design.

doesn’t clock off.

I enjoy making things, figuring out how they work, and getting away on the bike. Good ideas rarely stay inside one discipline.
