About
Tech leader with 15+ years of experience in leading teams to create high-quality web and mobile applications.
My teams and I have devised, built and supported platforms for the biggest names in sport including IMG Media, Premier League, Wimbledon, ATP Media, Professional Triathletes Organisation, supertri and more.
My background is in web and mobile development, having been self-taught as a teen and attending Teesside University to study Computer Science. Through that background, I have developed a real skill for explaining complex technical ideas to non-technical people, often bridging the gap between stakeholders and engineering.
My Co-CEO & Co-Founder role today varies between acting as CTO within the business, defining the commercial and tech vision, as well as being involved in commercial deals and pitches to grow our business further.
