What I do
The strategist who can ship. The builder who can think strategically. The two are rarely the same person.
Strategy plus execution
I led discovery, prioritised roadmaps, managed stakeholders, and shipped through engineering teams for ten years before AI changed what one person can build. Fifty plus products shipped that way.
Hands on AI builder
Claude Code, Cursor, n8n, Replit, the modern AI stack. I design, prototype, and ship working AI systems end to end myself, then hand off to engineering teams to scale.
Senior partner for founders
I work with company owners on the actual AI bet, not the demo. From bracket sizing and team shape to evals, hallucination handling, and production hardening.
How I work
A 90-day rhythm that ships.
Discover
Goals, constraints, real workflows mapped with the people doing the work.
Architect
AI strategy, product roadmap, sequencing, and the eval bar that defines success.
Build
Ship the smallest working slice end to end with modern AI tooling.
Scale
Hand off to engineering teams, operate in production, iterate on real usage.
