I make ideas into real products, accessible worldwide. 

So far I've taken 6 products (with a total of 11 design variations excluding color and multipacks) into global markets. 

For the first line of products - Orikaso, I had to build a global supply chain and distribution network from scratch. I developed POS displays, packaging, marketing materials, wrote patents, negotiated delivery and payment terms and sold millions of products worldwide. During this period I wore every hat in the business. I understand the challenges involved in bringing a product to market, from production issues, to logistics, to financial cash flows and monthly management accounts.  

For the second line - Betabook, I developed the product slowly with friends, and crowdfunded the first production run. Betabook LLC is now been run by my collaborators on this project. 

Both products were developed and prototyped with scissors and readily available materials.

I have the ability to create prototypes very quickly with limited resources and good physical literacy skills.

Presently I'm researching and developing a number of products focused on improving quality of life in a sustainable and anti-fragile manner. 

My experiences allow me to mentor start ups, and help them identify their best route to market.

Whilst I have contributed to these things and events becoming real, I couldn't have done any of them without my talented and wonderful collaborators.
