I turn technology strategy into platforms that ship.
Twenty-five years leading engineering organisations and delivering complex digital platforms across gaming, media and enterprise technology — on time, on budget, and built to scale.
Twenty-five years at the intersection of technology, people and business.
I'm a CTO and technology leader who has spent over twenty-five years delivering complex digital platforms, leading engineering organisations, and helping businesses turn technology strategy into commercial results. I've built a reputation for delivering ambitious programmes on time and within budget — combining strong engineering leadership with hands-on technical understanding and a relentless focus on execution.
I thrive at the intersection of technology, people and business, helping organisations transform ambitious ideas into scalable, reliable digital products. My leadership style is built around empowering teams, developing future leaders, and creating engineering cultures that consistently deliver high-quality software.
Across the gaming, media and enterprise technology sectors, I've delivered greenfield products, platform modernisation programmes and large-scale business-critical enhancements — building strong relationships with executives, clients and engineering teams alike, and translating business objectives into technology strategies that actually get delivered.
