I earned my Bachelor’s degree from Deakin University and have spent the last several years leading cross-functional teams, shipping features for iOS apps, and building brands for clients. I thrive on turning complex problems into clean UX, robust code, and scalable architectures, with a focus on collaboration and clear communication. Today I’m balancing roles as a founder, a developer, and an operations coordinator—driving client outcomes at The Digital Cornerstone and Subaru Berwick while continuing hands-on development with SEN’s Project Diamond. I love mentoring, learning new technologies, and designing experiences that delight users and stakeholders alike.
