About
I’m a business analysis and product ownership professional with 15+ years’ experience translating customer, business and technical needs into clear requirements and coordinated delivery. I’ve led everything from backlog management and stakeholder workshops to functional testing, integrations, reporting and release support—always focused on finding the underlying problem and turning incomplete inputs into developer-ready clarity.
I’ve worked across B2B SaaS and digital products, including client services and high-throughput support environments where I triage bugs and feature requests based on customer impact, risk and effort. Recently, I’ve been taking a 0-to-1 SaaS product (EngLedger) from early development toward live use by aligning finance, compliance, data and user needs into prioritised stories, acceptance criteria and release readiness decisions.

Own delivery for EngLedger from early product development toward live use. Bring finance, compliance, data and customer needs into one prioritised backlog, translating incomplete and competing inputs into workflows, user stories, business rules, acceptance criteria and release requirements. Work closely with developers across Jira, GitHub and Bitbucket integrations to resolve technical questions, dependencies, delivery risks and ambiguity as the product evolves. Review product behaviour against intended business outcomes and coordinate functional testing, priorities, decisions and release readiness.
Coordinate concurrent client work and turn specialist input into clear briefs, instructions, quality checks and review-ready deliverables.
Led 20–25 concurrent client projects per quarter across 8–10 distributed contributors, coordinating scopes, schedules, budgets, resources, risks and dependencies. Turned high-level or conflicting input into clear briefs, delivery plans, priorities and review criteria for specialist teams. Maintained project documentation and reporting in Asana, escalated risks early and kept clients and contributors aligned on progress, decisions and trade-offs. Improved intake, hand-off and tracking processes to clarify ownership and reduce avoidable rework.
