A selection of products and platforms I built or led over the last decade, showing the progression from early product creation through platform growth, monetisation and AI.

  1. VisitUs iPad App

  2. VisitUs Platform Expansion

    Platform Growth

    Expanded VisitUs from a single sign-in product into a broader platform spanning web administration, mobile experiences, internal operations tooling, APIs, webhooks and enterprise capability.

  3. Report Wizard

    AI Product

    Built and launched an AI powered platform that helps teachers generate and refine school reports in minutes rather than hours. Used by more than 500 teachers since launch, with growth driven entirely through SEO and automated onboarding and billing infrastructure.

  4. VisitUs Visitor App

    Mobile Product

    Designed and launched a dedicated visitor experience that streamlined sign in and improved speed, usability and consistency across VisitUs locations. Created as a purpose built mobile experience to improve adoption and modernise the arrival experience.

  5. Conversion Booster

    Growth Product

    Designed and launched a product focused on improving website conversion performance by analysing visitor behaviour. This growth-focused product contributed to a 77% increase in conversion rates for a VisitUs landing page.

    Product Transformation

    Led strategy and delivery of a complete dashboard redesign and pricing evolution program over nine months, simplifying the customer experience and enabling a more scalable commercial model.
