About

I’ve been working in the IT industry since 2006, mainly focusing on building commercial .NET, desktop commercial products, especially in Agile environments.

In my most recent role as a Senior Principal Associate in a London-based organisation, I was responsible for .NET WPF desktop commercial application development, doing code reviews, and working closely with business teams to translate user stories into clear technical requirements.

Overall, I bring nearly two decades of experience in Agile software development. I’ve worked in CMMI Level 5 organisations and have supported clients like FedEx, Barclays Bank, and Morgan Stanley. I focus strongly on following best development practices and processes that help improve productivity, increase transparency, and deliver high-quality, low-defect software solutions.
