Case Study 1
O’Fourneaux —
Leading a team under pressure,
with tools nobody had used before.
My final project at coding school. A pastry blog built in six weeks by a team of three. The subject is not the point — the point is that I served as Scrum Guardian for a real cross-functional team, kept delivery on track, and learned NextJS from scratch alongside the team while doing it.
Timeline
6 weeks, 2023–2024
My Role
Scrum Master / Web Developer
Team
3 people, multidisciplinary
Status
Delivered on time
Skills demonstrated
Scrum Facilitation, Team Coordination, Scope Management, On-time Delivery
What I Was Responsible For
- Facilitated all Scrum Events across the full 6-week sprint cycle
- Coordinated scope, timeline, and team capacity with no slack built in
- Co-created User Stories, mobile and desktop wireframes, and the full data model (MCD, MLD, MPD)
- Ensured alignment between what we planned, what we built, and what we shipped
Why This Project Still Matters
This wasn’t a solo project with full control. I had to align three people with different skill levels, different paces, and a fixed deadline — while learning a framework (NextJS) that none of us had touched before the project started.
We delivered. On time. With something we were proud of. That’s what this case study is really about.
The best Scrum Master in the room isn’t the one who knows the framework best — it’s the one who makes the team feel safe enough to surface blockers early.

I’m available for consulting engagements and open to discussing permanent PO/PM roles. Let’s talk about what you’re building.
