Senior Product Manager

Hi 👋 I'm James. I’ve led product teams over the last 5 years in high-pressure startup environments. With a foundation in Computer Science, I have overseen and guided teams to achieve successful business outcomes. I hail from a culturally diverse upbringing having grown up in seven countries worldwide.

As the Managing Director at Wishu Labs, I help businesses bring their software product visions to life, from ideation to launch. I recently spearheaded the development of an ed-tech software for the expert research teams at the University of Kent. As the Founder and CTO at Wishu Media, I created the leading newsletter for creators with thousands of monthly readers, the annual Web3 Creator Summit, and the AI-curated Tech Creator newsletter. With expertise in product management, I've also launched multiple B2C marketplace products from 0 to 1- Mobile and Web Apps. I have raised £400,000 in equity investment and scaled Wishu Media since.

I have a BSc in Computer Science from Royal Holloway, University of London, and multiple certifications in data science and web development. As someone forced to wear many hats, I have expertise in product management, data, UX, mobile apps, web development, recruitment, agile/SCRUM and far more. I enjoy working with cross-functional teams, learning new technologies, and empowering creators. I am always looking for new challenges and opportunities to grow and make a difference.
