The Man Behind the Machine

For over two decades, I've been obsessed with one thing: unlocking human potential through artificial intelligence.

I started building neural networks before AI was mainstream. I bootstrapped and sold two AI startups before the term "generative AI" hit headlines. I've helped scale everything from fintech unicorns to public-sector platforms. My secret? Strategy-first, tech-second. Always.

Why It Matters

Anyone can plug in a chatbot. Very few can build systems that understand context, respect ethics, and scale effortlessly. I bring enterprise-grade thinking and futureproof frameworks into every conversation.

Services

AI Strategy

AI Strategy & Consulting

Whether you're a billion-dollar enterprise or a Series A startup, I design AI roadmaps that solve real problems — not just tick boxes. From automation to product strategy, I help teams transition from AI-aware to AI-led.

AI Assistants

Custom AI Assistants

Trained on your data. Designed around your goals. Powered by GPT, Claude, Gemini, and other LLMs. From sales to support to internal comms — these aren't bots. They're digital workers that scale with your business.

AI Automation

Eliminate bottlenecks. Automate repetitive tasks. Integrate AI into existing systems without disruption. Think: AI that does real work across finance, logistics, HR, and customer service.

Hyper-personalized campaigns, dynamic funnels, predictive targeting — I help brands turn data into action and engagement into revenue. This is next-gen marketing with ROI that makes CMOs weep (in a good way).

Government Advisory

I work closely with government agencies to shape Australia's national AI policy. My advisory work ensures that our country's AI future is ethical, inclusive, and globally competitive.

AI Education

Through my foundation, I fund and design education programs in rural Uganda. From laptops to AI literacy, we empower kids to lead the AI economy of tomorrow.

Case Studies

Banking Case Study

Big Four Bank | AI Overhaul

Faced with legacy systems and siloed data, this bank needed more than advice — they needed an AI rethink. Within 90 days, we transformed operations, automated workflows, and reduced processing time by 70%.

E-commerce Case Study

E-Commerce SaaS | AI Assistant

I built and deployed an AI-powered sales assistant used by 3,000+ businesses — improving upsells, reducing support tickets, and increasing conversions by 32%.

Health Tech Case Study

Health Startup | From MVP to Market

This medtech startup needed to launch fast — and smart. We trained a diagnostic assistant on clinical data, integrated regulatory guardrails, and helped secure seed funding within six months.

Retail Case Study

Retail Chain | Supply Chain Automation

Manual inventory planning? Gone. AI-driven logistics and demand forecasting now deliver lean operations with 28% cost savings.

The School of Hope Foundation

I believe AI should lift people up, not leave them behind. Through the School of Hope, we're teaching coding and tech literacy to over 200 students in rural Uganda — preparing them to be the next generation of innovators. This isn't charity. It's infrastructure for a better future.
