A Soldier since aged 16, I have progressed through the ranks, commissioning from Warrant Officer, I am now a Major. I have been employed in numerous roles throughout my 31-year career.

A system thinker, I enjoy analysing current processes and identifying efficiencies that can be made, either by digitising elements, automating them, or a combination of both. What employed within a Training Development Team, our mission was to ensure that training met the requirements of the workplace, we conducted “Job Evaluation”, “Training Needs Analysis”, and “Training Delivery Analysis”; I headed up a project to take some elements of Face-to-Face delivery and create an eLearning package to replace it, this increased course completion by 1200%.

Fundamentals learnt in the Training Development sphere are consistent with Agile Software Development; continuous reference to the user weighed against the requirements of the business, delivered in the most efficient manner.

OVERFLIGHT

A project to reduce the cognitive load on Patient Evacuation Control Cells; the product identifies the most effective route to extract casualties to the most appropriate Medical Treatment Facility, that has capacity. An early model can be found at https://rapid.tiggaa.co.uk/

User Research Assistance

A firm believer in the Third Agile Ideal, I believe an organisation should always look internally for efficiencies before providing products for others. I developed the User Research Assistance Tool to help educate colleagues on Agile Software Development; it requires the users to create a User Persona before they are able to enter User Stories, and subsequently allocate Acceptance Criteria.

Dry Day

I was given the idea of a useful app to create and given a deadline of 30 days; I created an app that would advise users if the next day would be good for drying clothes on the washing line.
