Grow your business with confidence

Access the technical, strategic and leadership expertise of a product-led CTO without the burden of a full-time employee.

I work with businesses of all sizes, from startup through enterprise, but they all have one thing in common: they’re ambitious.

All businesses have their unique blend of challenges and I advise on a mixture of both strategic leadership and tactical implementation.

Having 20 years of experience from hands-on software engineering to board level—working in-house, as a consultant, as a business owner, and as a service provider—and many other dimensions in between, I pride myself on my ability to provide a more holistic viewpoint than traditional CTOs.
