My approach to production is defined by End-to-End Accountability, the belief that the Producer is the ultimate safety net for a project’s vision. I specialise in "Technical Translation": the strategic ability to bridge the gap between high-level creative ambition and low-level engineering constraints. By identifying the root anxieties behind stakeholder friction, whether artistic reputation or hardware limitations, I uncover the actual problem to find the most efficient, cost-effective solution.
I advocate for Sustainable Studio Cultures by prioritising team synergy from Day Zero. By treating team-building and ideation workshops as essential production milestones, I ensure that lone-wolf personalities are integrated into the pipeline through shared ownership and mutual inspiration. Rather than adhering to a single rigid framework, I evaluate each project case-by-case to implement the most effective workflow, balancing the sturdy milestones of Waterfall with the iterative flexibility of Agile to ensure the team remains resilient, curious, and communicative.
Engineered a 200% increase in student retention/engagement through optimised communication models.
Managed full lifecycle from initial market research to delivery (UniJam).
Ability to distil Technical notes such as Programming in C#, C++, Game Engines, and Systems Designs for non-technical stakeholders.
Expert in Atlassian tools such as Trello/Jira/Confluence (Ticket-writing, backlog grooming, User Stories) + other tools like Miro & etc.
Proof of a career-long commitment to high-level stakeholder management and advocacy.
Executive Leadership & Financial Turnaround (Non-Profit): Elected by the Board to serve as CEO for a regional community charity. Inherited an organisation with an £18k overdraft; through strategic financial oversight and new income stream development, cleared all debt and established a consistent weekly surplus and a healthy reserve fund (£4k+).
Record-Breaking Event Operations: Orchestrated and led the largest community event in the region’s history (500+ attendees), a logistics and attendance record that remains unbeaten.
UniJam x Global Game Jam Leadership: UniJam’s growth to become the world's largest in-person Global Game Jam (GGJ) host site, managing high-density logistics and technical infrastructure for 350+ developers.
Public Advocacy & Governance: Nominee for Member of Youth Parliament (Hillingdon) and regional representative for the Hillingdon Youth Council; experience in formal public-facing representation and advocacy.
A Legacy of Representation: Consistently elected as an Institutional Representative and Liaison across multiple academic and professional environments (including LSBU and Westminster).
This track record demonstrates a natural aptitude for serving as a primary communication bridge between executive faculty and diverse stakeholder groups.
I like to believe that UniJam is a good proof that I have the ability to build and manage a brand/product from scratch.
The Challenge: Transitioning a niche local game jam into a unified, multi-institutional brand ("UniJam") serving as the world's largest in-person Global Game Jam hub.
The Strategy -> Stakeholder Alignment: Negotiated and managed high-level partnerships with 10+ Higher Education institutions and industry bodies.
Brand Communication: Orchestrated multi-channel messaging (email, Discord, live-stream) to align 350+ active participants and diverse external partners under a unified vision.
Product Management: Oversaw the end-to-end event lifecycle, from logistics and funding to post-event community engagement.
The Result: Successfully scaled to 350+ participants in 12 months; established a self-sustaining community brand with a recurring 2025 release schedule.
To my understanding, when a system seem to be "broken" it usually means the leak hasn't been discovered and there is a chance to improve efficiency.
The Challenge: Low student retention (30%) and friction points in the learning journey.
The Strategy: Conducted user-feedback analysis and redesigned the communication pipeline; spearheaded the restructuring of course frameworks across all UK campuses for quality assurance.
The Result: Increased retention from 30% to 90%; standardised learning content nationally.
The Bridge Strategy: Expert at identifying the "Why" behind conflict.
Information Distillation: Transforming 50-page technical documents into digestible media (Audio/Video/Summaries) to protect creative team time and easier/ more reliable way to digest information.
Hybrid Implementation: Expert application of Scrum and Kanban for iterative development, balanced with Waterfall structures for milestone-heavy institutional projects.
