My first degree is in Philosophy and I have always been inspired by ideas especially practical ideas that can help us do things better. Agile is an amazing collection of philosophies.

I started doing a home-made form of Agile back in 2002 which was very iterative and loosely based on Rational Unified Process (I was also using some elements of Scrum even though I hadn't heard of Scrum at the time). I have since made use of the many components of Agile such as XP, Lean, Scrum and Kanban always with a view to improve quality and do things better.  

I currently work as an Agile Coach with Jaguar Land Rover in the UK.

My first degree is in Philosophy and I have always been fascinated by questions such as "How can we do things better, how can we work better and organise ourselves better, how we can reach our true potential?" I believe Agile has some answers.
