I go deep on how things work, then build what's missing.

My mind is usually running on a new idea, and I'm happiest when I get to code one up. At work I sit between clients and engineers: I turn messy business problems into specs a team can build and prototypes people can click, usually in a few days, not sprints.

How I workPeople I work with say I'm organized, pick things up fast, and somehow end up a step ahead. I think that's what happens when you keep asking why.

Off dutyI'm learning to fly.

I read clothing labels like documentation, working out which material, natural or synthetic, suits the weather, the occasion, and how long it needs to last.
