Résumé/CV: https://architectfwd.com/about

Email: hackernews at architectfwd dot com

Need a consultant, strategic thinking, architecture or related tech advice, coaching/ mentoring for you or your team? Need governance improvement?

How could we work together? An hour, a couple of hours or something more regular but flexible/fractional? I am looking for part hours, or retainers, or work toward fully moving into a consulting / advisory capacity

Let’s figure out how to work together.

I have 20+ years solving business problems and maximising opportunities through technology in a variety of industries internationally.

My core skills are in strategy, enterprise architecture, technology architecture, consulting and advice, agile, team leadership, coaching and mentoring. Can do operating model work.

I am currently a Principal Architect. I operate in strategic advisory and technology architecture with many years in architecture and technology in the private and public sector. I know how to use enterprise architecture frameworks, practices and principles from concept stage to delivery in order to execute on strategy and how to work with product and development teams to set direction and manage product evolution.
