State of Mana

For seven years I worked at the intersection of technology, people and process, leading transformation in consulting and higher education. While I loved driving big organisational shifts, I knew I wanted to bring my skills into a space with direct human impact: early education.

At Mana my focus is on turning ambitious ideas into reality: clearing roadblocks, connecting the dots and giving bold visions the momentum they need to succeed. What drives me most is building teams, both at Mana and with our customers, where people feel supported and empowered to see their own potential.

Over the past 20 years, I have led engineering teams and built complex, scalable platforms across industries including IoT, retail technology, media, telecommunications and enterprise software. In CTO and Director roles, I’ve driven architectural transformation, elevated engineering practices, and integrated AI capabilities to unlock new product value and accelerate innovation.

In joining Mana, I aim to bring this experience to help shape a clear technical vision, build and empower a world-class engineering team, and deliver product foundations that scale with ambition. I’m excited to contribute strategic leadership, hands-on technical depth, and a passion for innovation to help the company move fast, learn fast, and grow into its full potential.
