Head of AI · AI Architect · Founder — and an ex-Creative Director, which is exactly why my AI systems ship instead of dying in the demo stage. Since 2021 I've been moving businesses onto generative AI: designing the strategy, architecting the multi-agent systems, leading the R&D teams, and writing the code myself.

Most AI stops at the demo. I build the kind that ships — and pays for itself.
