01 / HOW I DELIVER PROJECTS

Project delivery.
Four repeatable moves.

Launch delivery, portfolio coordination, data-led improvement and stakeholder alignment. Four patterns grounded in the projects I have delivered.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT IN PRACTICE

Deliver a launch from zero.

I bring the workstreams of a new venture together: product, people, legal setup, budgets and customer delivery.

WHAT I DID

  1. 01At ADI, coordinated the Czech launch across legal setup, funding, product, lecturer supply, recruitment and operations.
  2. 02Recruited and coordinated a 10+ person team, connecting sales and customer care with lecturer supply and course delivery.
  3. 03Brought ADI to positive gross margin. At DecodeMerit, built the full technology stack and used customer feedback within a pay-only-if-satisfied model.

03 / BEYOND THE WORK

Kilometres. A camera.
Teams with stories.

Three things I bring into every team: consistency, an eye for people, and team buildings people talk about for years.

I run

Consistency, long horizons and a stubborn habit of finishing what I start.

I photograph people

Portraits are how I learned to make people comfortable enough to be themselves.

I organise team buildings

Four teams, four stories, and one still unwritten. Explore the field notes below.
