About me

I’m a designer, product leader and builder, currently Head of Design at London AI startup Dex. I’m also one half of Design and AI podcast Mostly Working and am building ooda.run in spare hours.

In 2019 I founded Progression, the worlds first career pathway platform. We built a great team, raised over $6m from cool investors and ultimately got acquired in 2024.

Before all that I led consumer design at now foodicorn Deliveroo (LON:ROO) for a bit, powered £1.8m+ of donations for 300k+ NHS staff meals during covid, helped to build a bank for children that made ahem, headlines, published 6 issues and 15,000 copies of a sweary magazine for creative graduates that my dad disapproved of and organised a 30 day creative festival on a dime in the middle of Shoreditch. I also interviewed Goldie and watched him chainsaw a tree, which was nice.

I can mainly be found online on X/Twitter and LinkedIn and adding occasional longer updates on this site (see below).
