About Me

Technology is evolving at an unprecedented pace, and the organizations that harness AI, XR, and emerging platforms strategically will define the next decade. I help leadership teams not just keep up - but lead with clarity and intent.

I'm a technology founder and AI strategist with over 20 years of experience building platforms from zero to large-scale deployment. My work spans applied AI, immersive technology (VR/AR/XR), IoT, clinical systems, and enterprise strategy - always with a focus on translating complex technology into real business value.

I've built and led across concept, product design, technical architecture, cloud infrastructure, and full implementation - working hands-on with teams, not just from the boardroom.

Technology for Good

I believe technology should serve human flourishing. Whether it's using VR to support brain health in older adults, AI to prevent gender-based violence, or IoT to make homes more sustainable - my work is driven by the conviction that emerging technology has a responsibility to improve lives and communities.
