About Ross
I'm the founder of Skysoclear, a digital product and innovation agency.
I've helped 200+ teams create world-class digital products using design sprint frameworks, rapid prototyping and data-driven decision making through user research and stakeholder workshops.
From designing MVPs for start-ups to undertaking high-risk design projects with multiple teams in large multinational organisations; I add certainty to uncertain design programmes.
I've:
- delivered SaaS projects within a fraction of the usual time and budget
- had more that 15 years experience delivering 200+ projects with clients including Google, NatWest and Land Rover
- generated clients over £1 million in extra revenue through design iteration
