Matt is a team and development lead with experience delivering bespoke applications to clients looking to transform their business through technology. Over the last 20+ years he has designed and built software for companies including industry leading music publishers looking to adapt to a rapidly changing market, small startups trying to discover new markets, and retail groups leveraging technology to get a competitive edge.

The Agile principles of valuing individuals, collaboration, flexibility and emergent design form the foundation of his approach to software and have proven to be a reliable way of navigating through the most challenging projects.
