I'm a tinkerer at heart.

I've been lucky enough to find myself often riding the waves of innovation before they crest. From the earliest days of social media to the current surge of generative AI, I've been at the forefront, building, experimenting, and sometimes stumbling onto success.

My journey's taken me from the criminal courts of London to conflict zones in Rwanda and Kosovo, working under the UNHCR and HH the Dalai Lama. I've built and sold tech companies, including Techlightenment (acquired by Experian) and Mahabis, a DTC shoe company that sold over 1m pairs across 100 countries in just 4 years.

These days, I split my time between advising fast-growth companies (hands-on as well as helping with the bigger picture) and getting my hands dirty with my own projects. I've worked with blue-chip clients like Vodafone, Sony, and GSK, but I'm just as likely to be found tinkering with the latest AI tools or dreaming future fun.

I enjoy thinking and building. And helping others along the way. Get in touch if I can help or you just want to chat.
