I am a Product Manager, User Researcher and Team Leader with over 15 years’ experience researching and developing digital products across Ed-tech, Publishing, and Global Education.
My last decade of digital:
A blend of Research and Product Management
In my career, I have rarely had the luxury of a dedicated user research function working in my team, so for me product strategy and development has always been a blend of discovery research, workshop facilitation, creative solution design, and a large dash of tech. I have had both user and business needs at the forefront of my mind. That’s what I am professionally: a blend of Research and Product Management.
My skills
I love working and collaborating with various teams from senior stakeholders, product managers and developers to create great products that meet the objectives of the business and its users.
As a Researcher – I have devised and run research sessions, including scoping, planning, moderating, analysis and debrief. I love the satisfaction that comes from overseeing research programmes end-to-end, from concept development from initial user research to user interface/interaction design and validation testing.
As a Product manager – I am responsible for products from inception, iterating and improving where needed, and working with local teams to improve sales globally. I have the pleasure of leading globally distributed, cross-functional teams to develop new products and improve their features.
As a human – I truly enjoy working with distributed teams across the world whilst being close to my family. Hence, I’m remote-first.
