My product development methodology is simple really:

Solve for the problem, not for the solution!

Every good product comes from someone who saw a problem that was bigger than them and decided to act. This philosophy is found in all that I do, from strategic direction to tactical execution.

I’ve spent the last 8+ years refining my product developing thinking from being output based to focusing on delivering valuable outcomes.
