01 / A little about me

Good ideas deserve
a little structure.

Curious mind. Practical perspective.

I’m interested in what makes things work — and what gets in the way when they don’t.

My background in Business Analysis and Business Analytics has shaped how I approach problems: understand the people involved, look closely at the systems around them, and bring clarity to what feels scattered or overwhelming.

I’ve worked across digital platforms, automation and process improvement, with experience that connects public-sector services, cloud and data work, and user-focused solutions.

Today, I’m a Digital User Researcher at the Ministry of Justice UK, continuing to build on that analytical foundation through a closer understanding of people and their needs.

01.

Start with people

Understand the context, the needs and the experience behind the process.

02.

See the whole system

Look at how information, decisions and processes connect — and where they break down.

03.

Make it practical

Turn understanding into clear next steps that people can actually use.

02 / Experience & perspective

Different contexts.
The same curiosity.

A foundation in analysis, a growing practice in research, and an interest in making digital services work better. Select an area to explore.

01

Business analysis & analytics

Understanding the problem. Bringing structure to the solution.

Analytical foundation

My analytical background helps me examine how systems and processes work, where inefficiencies emerge, and what people need to move forward. I bring that perspective to digital platforms, process improvements and the practical shaping of ideas.

02

Digital systems & service improvement

Connecting processes, information and everyday usability.

Digital experience

My experience includes cloud and data migration work, digital platforms, automation and user-focused solutions. I’m particularly interested in the structure behind a service: how information moves, how work is organised, and how the experience can become simpler.

User research & public services

Listening closely. Understanding needs in context.

Current practice

As a Digital User Researcher at the Ministry of Justice UK, I’m developing my research practice alongside my existing analytical skills. My interests include user needs, research evidence, knowledge operations and the way insights inform service decisions.

03 / How I think

From complexity
to a clear next step.

Whether I’m exploring a service challenge or shaping an idea, I return to the same questions: What’s happening? What matters? What should happen next?

Understand

Listen, ask questions and understand the people, context and problem.

Connect

Find the relationships between needs, information and processes.

Structure

Make the problem clearer, surface assumptions and organise the options.

Move forward

Choose a practical next step, learn from the evidence and refine.

Ideas rarely fail on their own.
They fail when there is no clear
structure to support them.

04 / Ideas & community

Possibility, put
into practice.

Alongside my professional development, I’m interested in how people turn knowledge, connections and experience into something useful.
