About Me

From Strategy to Stack - MadeByMeade
With over a decade of experience leading business development across digital agencies, I've helped brands grow through strategic outreach, client insight, and innovative thinking.
My work at companies like Candyspace and MSO taught me how to build trusted partnerships and align digital services with evolving business goals.
Along the way, I discovered a passion for the technology behind the solutions I sold - which led me to pursue full-stack development through Codecademy.
Now, I’m combining my commercial edge with engineering skills to build digital experiences that don’t just look good - they work better, convert faster, and scale smarter.
