about me:

• I work as a product owner at Cambridge University Press & Assessment.
• I'm studying Philosophy part-time. Primarily interested in normative ethics and metaphysics (specifically identity) atm. Also interested in philosophy of technology.
• I like golf, powerlifting (any general gym stuff), mountains (tbf, more like big hills in the UK), and old cars. These aren't in any particular order.
• Previously, I worked for Shepper, Paysafe, and was the founding product manager at Roboteer.
• I've worked in sales, ops, development, business analysis and product management roles in software companies.
• I used to compete in powerlifting and am a national champion in equipped (warning: volume) bench press.

• Last updated 2nd Mar 2026.
• Can't believe it's almost spring.
• Settling in to my new job (back, after 5 years away) at Cambridge University Press & Assessment.
• Reading The Anatomy of Fascism by Robert Paxton. Interesting, if a bit dark.
• Trying to explore more Buy It For Life type products/ideas. Something feels inherently good about not chucking stuff away so frequently.
