Enterprise AI & Operating Leadership | Strategy, Technology, Finance

Building AI capabilities that deliver measurable business value.

I build and scale technology-led businesses by connecting strategy, engineering, operating models and financial performance.

Across 25 years in technology, consulting and business transformation, I have worked at the intersection of enterprise technology, product, finance and operations — from scaling organisations and transforming delivery models to building governed AI capabilities for regulated environments.

My focus is turning complex ambitions into executable operating systems: the right architecture, the right people, disciplined capital allocation, clear accountability and measurable outcomes.

What I do

Build enterprise AI capabilities
Translate AI strategy into engineering capabilities, governed production systems and repeatable enterprise deployment.

Design operating models that scale
Connect people, processes, platforms and decision rights to increase delivery speed, productivity and organisational effectiveness.

Turn growth into economic value
Use unit economics, operating metrics, capital discipline and execution cadence to improve business performance and investor readiness.

Selected experience

Enterprise technology: Senior leadership experience across Cognizant, Wipro and Dentsu.

Organisational scaling: Experience building and scaling technology and delivery organisations.

AI and governance: Current CFO/COO leadership in a company developing governed AI for regulated environments.

Operational value creation: Experience spanning restructuring, commercial performance, operating-model design and financial discipline.

My operating philosophy

Technology creates value when it changes how an organisation works, makes decisions and allocates resources.

That requires more than a strategy or a successful proof of concept. It requires an operating model that connects architecture, people, governance, economics and execution.

I focus on making that model work in practice.

Writing and research

I write about enterprise AI architecture, governed AI, AI economics, engineering capabilities, and the operating models required to scale technology responsibly.
