Richard Stowey
Hi 👋! My name is Richard Stowey and I love solving human problems through unique physical and digital experiences.
Brought up with a family history in UK manufacturing, I initially studied 3D Design and Design Engineering.
I spent a decade working at agencies for huge brands like Huawei, Honda, Ford, SFR, Cobra and Laithwaite's, managing multi-million pound marketing, advertising and consulting design projects.
In the last five years I've been heavily focused on leading the creation of 0 - 1 chat and video products in the eCommerce space, first at Hero and now at Klarna.
In my spare time I like to code and work on random engineering / science projects with my kids.
