Our Approach

My Approach

I want to help you, your teams and your company do your best work, produce the products and services your customers really want and help you succeed in everything you do. I am passionate about helping software engineers and teams to reach their potential. I am a coach and mentor and a strong facilitator. I help individuals and teams improve their communication skills, their working relationships, perspectives, and understanding. I can do this in any way that suits you, but I typically run workshops, training and work with the teams directly to achieve results.

Our Story

My Story

I started offering consultancy services about a year ago, I was approached by some ex-colleagues for help with their new teams and companies. They needed to find ways to deliver high-quality software more efficiently and consistently. I worked with two companies to provide workshops and training on Behaviour Driven Development practices and worked with individuals and teams to improve their requirements analysis and testing skills as well as providing advice and recommendations on test automation, continuous integration, and scrum and kanban style agile practices and processes.

Meet the Team

Currently, I am a team of one.
I am not a full-time consultant, as I have a day job too, I am currently practising my agile coaching skills and following another of my passions which is health and fitness, to help a great team of folks to disrupt the world of insurance with heart rate based science and algorithms to prescribe a simple metric to improve peoples cardiovascular health, to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease and to elongate everyone's life.
