I apply AI to extend the disciplined methods behind the transformation, migration and cutover programmes I have led.
AI increases speed and insight; accountability, judgement and leadership remain human.
I am seeking employment in senior project leadership, programme workstream leadership, transition, transformation and migration roles. Connect with me through LinkedIn or email.
My interest in UAVs goes beyond flying off-the-shelf aircraft. I enjoy building, configuring and testing custom multirotor platforms, including a six-rotor heavy-lift platform. It follows what I describe as a “heavy-light” design principle: providing useful lifting capacity while keeping unnecessary airframe weight to a minimum. The aim is to support interchangeable thermal imaging, laser survey and DSLR recording for imaging, inspection and experimentation.
