about:
I build production AI systems.

At ZoomRx I've been building Sagan Agents - a platform for creating agentic AI workflows on top of clients' market-research data. It spans a range of agents, from dashboard builders to archive-querying agents to analytical agents, turning work that used to take analysts weeks into a few hours.

Alongside that, I shipped a Gen-AI survey-coding agent that cuts hours of manual work to minutes, and I contribute to open-source LLM tooling (Langfuse's Python SDK).

That all sits on nine years of backend and platform work here - growing from SDE to Staff Engineer. Along the way: data platforms handling millions of records, leading a team of 7, ~80% faster load times through query and caching optimization, migrating core services to AWS, shipping several features, and standing up the SRE and observability foundations other teams build on.

I care about impact over tech for its own sake. My rule of thumb: "what's the smallest thing I can do in the shortest time to make the biggest impact?" - then repeat. I'm deeply AI-native and reach for AI across everything I build.

If you're building something ambitious with AI at its core, I'd be glad to connect.

about:
What is it about solving problems that is so darn satisfying?

That inclination to find impactful solutions and my innate desire to understand how things work "behind the scenes" or "under the hood" are what drew me to a unique career in web development. I've been a graphic designer for the majority of my career and while I enjoy the creative-conceptual side of my brain, I have been yearning to explore the logical, solution-based side! The seed was first planted upon taking a web design class in college. But it wasn't until I took a beginner Javascript course that I finally understood how much my brain enjoyed learning a new language and using that language to find tech-based solutions.

It was an easy choice from there to fully foster that seed of curiosity and dive into the technical wonder and chaos that is a software engineering immersive course. During my schooling at Fullstack Academy, I worked on multiple solo projects and was lucky to work alongside a few brilliant students where we deployed two team projects with tech stacks including: Express, Sequelize, React, Redux, Javascript, HTML, CSS, Google Firestore, socket.io, Mapbox, and more.

With a great foundation of technical knowledge under my belt, I am enthusiastically reaching to learn even more technologies and coding languages and jazzed to press forward with the hopes of building and shaping solutions for projects large and small!

Skills:
Proficient in JavaScript, Node.js/Express, Git, Github, and HTML5/CSS3.
Strong working knowledge of Agile development, React, Redux, REST APIs, Sequelize, PostgresSQL, Google Firestore, and Microsoft Office.
Extensive experience and mastery of Adobe InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator, and Acrobat.
Basic knowledge of Adobe Premiere Pro, and Adobe XD.

about:
I help pharmaceutical and life sciences companies close the gap between digital ambition and commercial impact — turning omnichannel strategy and martech investments into measurable engagement value.

As Senior Manager in Digital Engagement at BASE life science, I currently advise 3-5 pharma clients in parallel across 2-3 concurrent projects, ranging from DKK 0.5m to 8m. My work spans commercial engagement advisory, digital maturity assessments, customer journey strategy, and omnichannel gap assessments — combining commercial pharma experience (7+ years client-side at AbbVie and Lundbeck) with 15+ years in strategy and digital transformation consulting.

I focus on three things:
 - Bridging strategy, technology and people — so digital investments actually get adopted, not just implemented
 - Building repeatable methodologies rather than one-off recommendations
 - Leading project teams of varying size, having previously grown and led teams of up to 10

Open to connecting with people exploring commercial engagement, omnichannel strategy, or digital maturity in life sciences — or just want to exchange perspectives on where pharma commercial digital is heading.

about:
Senior Technical Program Manager | AI & Digital Transformation | Agile Delivery | 7+ years turning "it's complicated" into "it's handled."

I take ambiguous, chaotic challenges across enterprise software, data, and AI and turn them into clear roadmaps, aligned teams, and outcomes you can measure. I'm the person who shows up when there's a roadmap with more question marks than dates, teams pointed in vaguely different directions, and a deadline everyone is politely pretending isn't approaching.

Most recently, I led delivery of two enterprise AI products: an AI document translation tool, and an internal "ChatGPT for company data" that gave teams a single source of truth instead of six conflicting spreadsheets. That included RAG architecture decisions, hallucination measurement, and retrieval quality tradeoffs, not just process oversight. I coordinated two cross-functional teams (scaled from 15 to 27 people) toward one roadmap, as part of a company-wide digital transformation.

Most of my work lives in the messy middle, where strategy meets execution and good ideas either get delivered or quietly disappear into a backlog. I partner with product, engineering, analytics, and senior leadership to turn big-picture objectives into execution plans that make the whole thing visible, predictable, and a lot less stressful. Program governance, roadmap execution, stakeholder management, risk and dependency management, and organizational change are where I'm in my element.

Part program leader, part problem solver, part translator of "what are we even trying to do here?" into "here's how we'll get there." I bring clarity, momentum, and productive stubbornness, with a soft spot for the kind of work where there's no playbook yet.

What I'm good at:

headline: Senior Behavioural Scientist | Public Policy, Strategy & Service Improvement | Research & Evaluation | Behaviour Change | Health, Work & Public Services

about:
I’m a behavioural scientist and public policy professional with more than 10 years’ experience working across government, consultancy and public services.

My work has focused on understanding behaviour, improving services and translating evidence into practical interventions. I’ve led and delivered projects spanning behavioural science, service design, research and evaluation, organisational behaviour, employment, health and wellbeing, and capability building.

Most recently, I was a Senior Advisor at the Behavioural Insights Team, where I worked with government, employers and third-sector organisations to tackle complex behavioural and policy challenges.

My experience includes designing and testing interventions, qualitative and quantitative research, programme and project leadership, stakeholder engagement, business development, and facilitation. I’ve also delivered extensive behavioural science training to policymakers and practitioners.

Before joining BIT, I spent around a decade in the Civil Service, including roles across HMRC, the Cabinet Office, and Scottish Government. This gives me a strong understanding of how policy, operations and frontline services interact and how evidence can be turned into changes that work in practice.I’m particularly interested in opportunities relating to mental health and wellbeing, behavioural science, prevention, service improvement and public-sector innovation.

Alongside this work, I’m completing postgraduate training in psychodynamic counselling and helping to develop Progress Therapy, a psychologically informed therapy and assessment practice. This is deepening my understanding of therapeutic practice, mental health and the human factors that shape whether services genuinely work for people.

I’m currently open to senior r
