About the Hosts
Ryan Purvis
Host
I’ve spent 20+ years working with technology to help users to work better. I really enjoy not just simply changing technology, but also changing our approach to it. I take pleasure from working with stakeholders and helping them to challenge, influence, and support them in solving their most complex problems by using technology as a business enhancing tool. My success is attributable to my ability to combine my business and technical skills and thoroughly understand the business needs to determine the approach to deliver transformational business & technical solutions.
Outside of work, you’ll find with my family or deep into a good book.
Heather Bicknell
Host and Producer
I am a writer and product marketer in a love-hate relationship with technology. I’m interested in ways technology can help us be our best selves—more empathetic, more creative, and less busy. When I’m not blogging or podcasting, you’ll find me backpacking, playing games with friends, or stress baking.
