about:
“It’s not about the technology. It’s about the business results.”

For over 35 years, I have transformed processes and applied technology to improve operations, working to deliver via incredibly talented multi-dimensional teams and collaborating across functions to lead massive positive change for every company for which I have had the honor of being employed. An educational background in systems analysis laid the foundation for a unique, methodical approach to identifying key metrics and gaps in process in order to leverage and streamline global resources, reaching goals in the most efficient and cost-effective way possible.

If your organization seeks to cultivate results-driven process improvement, apply technology solutions where it’s a right fit, and lead teams by example, let’s talk. I’m always happy to share knowledge, expertise and solutions with executive teams guiding change with a focus on growth, productivity and cost control.

headline: Fractional CTO | AI & Platform-led Transformation | Enterprise Integration, Data & Agentic Ops | Converting Strategy into Measurable Outcomes

about:
I help organisations close the gap between technology ambition and real world outcomes.
In practice, that means ensuring investments in security, data and platforms translate into measurable value, not just delivery milestones. Technology decisions are rarely the limiting factor. Execution, adoption and ongoing operation are where success is determined.

As data becomes central to every organisation, the challenge is no longer access to information, but trust, usability and value.  I am particularly focused on making data:
 - Intuitive to consume
 - Trusted by the business
 - Embedded into decision making
 - Supported by security models that enable, rather than constrain, innovation.

Over two decades, I have worked across telecommunications, financial services, government, education, media and professional services, operating at the intersection of security, data, software engineering and enterprise consulting.
This breadth allows me to approach problems holistically, connecting architecture, delivery and operations into a single outcome driven model.

IT isn’t dead. But the delivery model should be.

Pulled together a few observations from recent work on why “successful” projects still struggle to deliver value.

Feels like the shift is less about building, and more about enabling modern operations to actually manage, evolve, and measure value over time.
