I’ve spent over 30 years working in the IT industry, and today I specialise in helping organisations design, implement and optimise modern collaboration and digital workplace platforms.

It’s not just tech, it’s about the people

I focus on people just as much as the technology itself. Because no matter how powerful a platform is, if users don’t understand it, they simply won’t use it.

Over the past 15 years working in the collaboration space, I’ve consistently seen the same challenges around user adoption. Organisations invest in new tools with the best intentions, but without the right guidance, structure, and support, those tools often fail to deliver their full value.

That’s why I take a people-first approach — combining technical expertise with clear communication, practical documentation, and adoption-focused strategies. The goal isn’t just to implement technology, but to ensure it’s understood, embraced, and genuinely useful in day-to-day work.

What I do

  • Modernise collaboration platforms
    Transform legacy or underutilised tools into efficient, scalable digital workplaces
  • Deliver successful migrations
    Plan and execute seamless transitions with minimal disruption to business operations
  • Establish governance that scales
    Implement clear structures and policies that support growth without creating complexity
  • Drive real user adoption
    Ensure platforms are understood, embraced, and used effectively across the organisation
  • Create clear, usable documentation
    Provide practical guidance that empowers users and reduces long-term support needs

My Experience

  • Deep expertise across Microsoft and HCL collaboration ecosystems
  • Enterprise consulting experience across complex, large-scale environments
  • IBM Collaboration Champion / HCL Ambassador
  • Conference speaker across the UK, Europe, and the US
  • Strong background in IBM WebSphere technologies, including Portal and HCL Commerce, supporting enterprise-grade digital platforms

A little more about me

Outside of my consulting work, I’m passionate about community, creativity, and sharing knowledge. I’ve long been involved in user groups and events, and I love bringing people together around shared interests — whether that’s collaboration technology or something a little more fun, like the Disney Parks trivia and YouTube channel I’m part of.

I’m currently working as an independent consultant and available for contract, consulting, or permanent opportunities.


I’m open to UK-based remote work and relocation to the United States (Idaho).
