About

I did not start my career in a lab or a boardroom. I started it in the middle of real customer conversations — where every frustration, pause, and sigh told a story about the gap between what companies build and what people actually need. That gap has never stopped fascinating me. Two decades on, I work at the intersection of UX research, AI ethics, and enterprise transformation. I have had the privilege of leading cross-cultural teams across 16 countries, building research functions from the ground up, and contributing to strategies that shape C-level decisions for organisations impacting hundreds of thousands of people. The work has always been most meaningful when it is collaborative — when research earns its seat at the table not by asserting its value, but by demonstrating it. Some of the work I am most proud of: → Built the UX research function at Capgemini from zero, now central to product and technology decisions for 300,000+ global employees → Identified two Agentic AI use cases that reframed how the organisation thinks about employee-facing AI — both prioritised for the 2026 product roadmap → Developed AI ethics evaluation standards that became the benchmark for internal AI initiatives across HR, IT, Legal, and Finance → Guided the modernisation of 700+ meeting spaces across 5 countries through human factors research → Reduced systemic AI bias in a global financial platform through cross-cultural human-in-the-loop assessment What drives me is not just uncovering insight — it is what happens after. The shifted mindset. The product decision that finally reflects how people actually behave. The organisation that starts to see research not as a cost, but as a compass. If you are building something that puts people at the centre — and you want a thought partner who will listen as much as they lead — I would love to connect.

  • Agentic AI Use Case Identification & Research
  •  Identified and researched two high-impact Agentic AI opportunities by recognizing that multi-touch point UI workflows were the root problem — not missing features — proposing agent-based solutions on the organization’s internal AI platform for employees as a leaner, more effective alternative.
  •  Workforce Intelligence Agent
  • Conducted research with HR on enterprise skills intelligence solutions to optimize consultant identification, fitment, and cross‑geography allocation. Identified critical gaps in AI utility during staffing workflows, and proposed a human-in-the-loop agent capable of interpreting recruitment needs, querying the platform, surfacing ranked matches, and iteratively refining results based on recruiter feedback.
  • Core Expertise Experience Contact
  •  Smart Workplace Agent
  • Conducted research on a global desk reservation platform, uncovering systemic issues including bulk booking, no-shows, and zero support for last-minute or collaborative seating needs. Challenged the proposed waitlist feature as symptomatic — not strategic — and proposed a human-in-the-loop agent to handle availability, colleague proximity, policy context, and booking or cancellation in a single conversational flow.
  •  Impact: Research findings and Agentic AI workflows aligned to the CIO's strategic vision for internal AI platform adoption; both use cases designated as priority for the 2026 product iteration backlog.

  • When I joined Capgemini, UX research for digital employee experience didn’t exist — not in name, not in practice, and certainly not in strategy. I built it from the ground up.
  • Over three years, I turned “research as an afterthought” into “research as a C-level lever,” embedding it across HR, IT, Finance, Legal, and Sales technology initiatives. I led a team of six researchers and now guide cross-functional teams under a flat hierarchy, ensuring insight flows as freely as ideas.
  • Some highlights:
  • Established global AI ethics standards for employee-facing AI tools — now a standard across all internal AI initiatives.
  • Modernized 700+ meeting rooms worldwide, tailoring solutions to cultural work patterns for seamless collaboration.
  • Drove sales platform satisfaction from 2.8 to 4.2 in six months by translating real-world workflows into design priorities.
  • I didn’t just create a research function. I created a new expectation for how an enterprise listens to its people — and acts on what it hears.

  • Brought in to lead UX research for American Express’s AI initiatives, I found a problem with stakes too high to ignore: critical cultural bias embedded in 5,000+ annotated transactions. Left unchecked, it could have disrupted millions of expense processing events globally.
  • I moved quickly — creating bias detection methodologies, setting new quality standards, and training 12 data annotation specialists. In the process, I shifted the entire AI-first department toward user-goal-driven development.
  • Impact in just six months:
  • Prevented systemic bias in a global financial platform.
  • Reduced deployment cycles from 5–6 iterations to just 2–3.
  • Achieved 94% design system compliance across six AI platforms.
  • This role confirmed what I already knew: Ethical AI isn’t a nice-to-have — it’s the backbone of trust in global systems.

  • My 16-year journey here started with listening to angry customers and ended with preventing the frustrations that caused those calls in the first place.
  • I learned early that 65% of escalations weren’t product defects — they were design failures. So I took UX research out of the lab and into the field. I shadowed sales reps, observed real-world environments, and redesigned processes and tools based on lived experience.
  • Key milestones:
  • Increased tablet adoption from 10% to 75% by fixing 10 usability and 2 accessibility barriers, reducing credit card application time to 60 seconds.
  • Built a mentorship program for 30+ CX professionals, cutting time-to-productivity from 6 months to 4 weeks.
  • Applied design thinking to regulatory compliance, boosting compliance rates from 5% to 80% without penalties.
  • Standardized RPA deployment across 50 workflows, reducing deployment time by 40%.
  • This was the role where I learned to turn insights into impact — and where I built the foundation for the global leadership roles I hold today.

  • I started my career on the customer front line, servicing grievance calls for a UK-based utility company. It was here that I learned one of my most valuable lessons: people rarely call to complain about the thing they think is broken — it’s almost always something deeper.
  • Even in this role, I focused on root-cause thinking, documenting patterns and preparing detailed engineer tickets that helped resolve systemic issues faster. That early discipline of curiosity and precision has stayed with me in every role since.
