I'm a father of 3 from Sydney, a product and technology leader. I write about leadership, product management, technology and the messy reality of making work work.
I'm currently building and experimenting with a mildly alarming number of things.

I founded SoundingBoard, practical peer exchange for product people. Connect via LinkedIn, or follow me on X.
