02 / What I help with
Identifying where to invest, how products should evolve, and how portfolios should fit together.
Evaluating markets, competitors, customer needs, and the commercial case for action.
Understanding the impact of conversational AI, voice AI, and agentic systems on communications products.
Fractional or project-based leadership across definition, prioritization, positioning, and go-to-market.
03 / Experience
25+
years in telecom and communications technology
Senior product leadership at Microsoft and extensive experience at Metaswitch, spanning cloud voice, contact centers, AI agents, telecom infrastructure, and enterprise communications.
I’ve worked closely with carriers and enterprises, engineering organizations and executive teams, turning technical complexity and market ambiguity into product decisions people can act on.
04 / How I work
I work directly with leadership and product teams to get quickly to the core of ambiguous problems. The work combines technical understanding with commercial and product judgment.
The output is a clear point of view and practical recommendations, not a large consulting presentation.
05 / Contact
If you’re working through a product, market or technology question in communications or AI, I’d be happy to compare notes.
