Working together
My consulting practice focuses on three main areas: User Research, Service Design, and Facilitation. I also offer leadership coaching through a separate practice.
User Research
Well-targeted user research can significantly reduce the risk of costly mistakes, whether you are creating a new product or service, or improving an existing one. When you understand your users, your products and services fit them well. As Peter Drucker once said, “They sell themselves”.
I can help with:
- Designing, moderating, and reporting on various types of user research.
- Turning research findings into easy-to-digest visuals and stories that inspire action.
I'm pragmatic in my approach and committed to translating research into actionable recommendations—whether to shape existing roadmaps or to guide the development of new products and services.

Service design
Most of us rely on a multitude of services every day, from subscription services like Netflix to government services, such as renewing a passport. Many of these services are incredibly complex behind the scenes. To deliver them successfully, multiple departments and teams need to work well together. With changing policy and regulation, different business owners, numerous checks, and often third-party providers in the mix, the complexity increases.
However, services don’t need to be complex for the people who use them. Services can—and should—be easy to find and use. That’s where service design comes in.
- Service discovery to inform and guide the design of new services making them
viable, accessible, and easy to use. - Designing and evaluating new service concepts
- Evaluating existing services, including mapping complex services and journeys.
- GDS Service Standard.

Leadership coaching
I also offer leadership coaching through FIELD Coaching – a separate practice focusing on 1-to-1 leadership coaching and team development for leaders in tech.
