About
At Food Sock Meals, I joined as Reseller Manager and my scope expanded to full growth ownership across sales, marketing, creative, CRM, and channel strategy. I report to the COO and lead two sales representatives and the Reseller Manager.
At Rolodex, I deliver AI-driven automation and reporting for small-business clients, including document matching and supplier-tracking workflows using n8n, Anthropic, and OpenAI APIs. I also build WordPress and WooCommerce sites.
As Co-Founder at Bluelight Software, I helped direct company strategy, financial planning, operations, client relationships, and technical direction while contributing hands-on to delivery and legacy-system modernisation.
At Brainwave Projects, I led front-end development projects using ReactJS and modern web technologies, and managed operational work including resource allocation, project scheduling, and budgeting. I also worked on responsive UI design, Agile processes, and performance optimisation.
