About

Senior product manager in maritime tech, London-based. I spend my days turning shipping workflows into software, and my evenings building things I wish existed: Wren (Slack-style Teams for Mac), DLM (peer-to-peer screen time accountability for iOS), stratOS (a product operating system) and CountryPal.

Wren - A calm, Slack-style Mac app for your Microsoft Teams chats

Wren is a fast, native-feeling Mac app for Microsoft Teams chats and channels, laid out the way Slack users expect: a sidebar, threads in a side panel, and an Unreads page that shows only what's new. It works directly with Microsoft Graph using your own work account, so your messages stay in Teams and there's no server in the middle. Group chats, five colours named after birds, and support for macOS text size, motion and contrast settings.
