About me.
Engineering Manager · 20+ years building, 7+ years leading. United Kingdom, working globally.
With over 20 years in software engineering, I've had the privilege of working with some of the world's most recognised brands. My journey has taken me from hands-on coding to leading global engineering teams, always with a focus on delivering exceptional user experiences.
After years of scaling engineering teams and platforms, I've deliberately pivoted to the AI frontier. The intersection of leadership experience and hands-on AI development is where I can have the most impact — building systems that augment human capability while leading teams that ship responsibly.
I'm currently building production AI systems: computer vision for agriculture, RAG-powered interfaces, and agentic workflows with MCP integration. This hands-on AI experience, combined with my leadership background, positions me to bridge the gap between AI innovation and enterprise delivery.
