About

I came to AI through cognitive science. Studying how people actually reason turned out to be the most useful preparation possible for building systems that have to reason about a business.

Today I am the first data and AI hire at an architectural glazing manufacturer, where I build the agentic systems the sales organisation runs on: an engine that compiles ideal-customer profiles from live CRM data, a crawler that turns those profiles into scored and source-attributed leads, and a fleet of domain-specialised agents over Microsoft 365.

Before that I built and shipped on my own account, and before that I did research-grade modelling work at university. The thread running through all of it is the same: make the system do the work, then prove it did.
