Digital Strategy

Navigate uncertainty. Align around what matters. Build what’s next.
Translating bold ideas into aligned strategies, scalable business models, and testable roadmaps. From early-stage ventures to innovation inside large enterprises, I guide teams in identifying where to play and how to win, while keeping customer and stakeholder needs at the center.

Customer & Market Discovery

Surface what matters. Translate insight into action.
Uncover what your customers need, using mixed-method research and synthesis to fuel strategy, design, and prioritization. From qualitative interviews and journey mapping to segmentation and rapid testing, I help you size opportunities, uncover actionable insights, and build confidence in your solution.

From framing the vision to delivering the pilot, I navigate both the complexity of systems and the realities of execution.
