Agile Product Owner, certified PSPO1 and CSPO with over a decade in business analysis and a uncontainable passion for scrum, change, projects and delivering value.I love the product domain and the Product Owner role, i’m committed to encouraging like minded individuals to enter the field as I believe the impact this role can have on a business is significant. My experience has taken me through a huge variety of change projects in global multi national organisations to charity’s and start ups. Projects I have been involved in include large scale ERP and CRM implementations, scum driven initiatives to deliver functionality to businesses and consumers including Fraud, animal welfare and the building of an insurance marketplace. I have been coached and have mentored colleagues over my career and built and always remember what it was like when you are first trying to break it into certain industries and roles.
