Mischa Colley

I’m a Creative Technologist. As a Fractional CTO I help purposeful organisations use digital technology for good.

With more than a decade in digital, from development to leadership, I help teams bring clarity and purpose to their technical decisions and digital projects.

Here’s how I can help:

  • 🧭 Fractional CTO / Technical Leadership — Can’t justify a full-time CTO? I can help translate technical complexity into clear, actionable plans so you can make confident decisions and get things done. From mentoring teams to overseeing delivery, I bridge the gap between vision and implementation.
  • 💡 Digital Strategy — From discovery workshops to digital transformation, I help you map where technology can have the biggest impact. I combine consulting with hands-on implementation when it makes sense, ensuring strategy becomes reality.
  • 🧑🏼‍💻 Development Projects — I still love to build. Whether it’s crafting a new site or refining an existing product, I bring a full-stack understanding with a frontend focus, working solo or as part of a team.

Why I do it:

Becoming a dad made one thing clear: if I was going to stay in tech, it had to be for work that truly mattered. My two kids (8 and 10), and the world I want for them, are the filter for every project I choose.

Over the years, I’ve partnered with NFPs, social enterprises, and B Corps, as well as collaborated with values-aligned teams like Populares, Digital Village, StartSomeGood, Verve Super, Rainbow Power Company, We Are Explorers and Today.

Someone once called me a Swiss Army knife. An adaptable, multi-skilled problem solver, ready for anything. As a proud generalist, I took it as the highest compliment :)

I’m also beginning to consult in the EdTech space — exploring how learning happens beyond traditional education and how technology can help make that more sustainable.
