Hello, I’m Rob.
I like nothing more than getting my head around complex systems and then explaining and simplifying them. I do that here, on my blog, and in my day job.
I’m Founder and Chief Strategist at Orso, a commercial, creative and consumer strategy consultancy based in London. I combine deep commercial thinking with playful creativity to help clients figure out what to do next, whether that’s devising a commercial strategy or developing some new marketing and communications.
If you’d like to contact me, you can email me at r@robm.me.uk.
Before I got into my current line of work, in 2010, I worked as a journalist and lived for a time in Bosnia where I reported on war crimes trials at the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Govorim malo bosanski – slobodno me kontaktirajte na BHS-u!
I wrote my first book in 2015: Text Processing with Ruby, published by the wonderful Pragmatic Bookshelf.
I spent a long time working as a software developer. You can find some of my work on my GitHub profile.
