Get to Know Me
I’m on a path to become one of the UK’s most impactful engineering leaders, building resilient organisations and mobilising exceptional talent to realise their full potential.
This is more than a career goal, it’s a mission. I want to shape high-performing teams, lead with clarity and purpose, and deliver software and platforms that power real-world business growth.
Whether scaling from 30 to 300 engineers or driving AI adoption across a product suite, I’m focused on building organisations where people thrive and technology delivers.
I wasn’t handed a playbook for success; I'm building it. Through trial and transformation, I've discovered that navigating an unpredictable world isn’t about following someone else’s path. It’s about designing your own.Here, I document the wins, the losses, and the hard-earned insights that shaped my thinking.
I’ll share my research, whitepapers, and publications, alongside my personal reflections on leadership, resilience, and autonomy. This isn’t just about business; it’s about building a life with intention.
If you’re ready to challenge the status quo, sharpen your vision, and take control of your future, let’s get to work. Nothing is out of reach.
