AI-first, for real
AI isn't a tool choice. It's how the team works.
I lead engineering in London with AI in the loop: three AI reviewers on every pull request, releases taken from monthly to weekly.
I took the thesis to the AI Coding Summit, 800+ engineers, and to React Advanced London at Figma.

- Case studyBeyond the QA BottleneckHow I used eight focused AI skills to bring tests, device evidence and review into React Native development, with monthly PR activity and production feedback.
- Talk · JavaScript LondonThe Compound Effect of Guardrails in the Era of AIWhy guardrails compound over time in AI-assisted engineering, and how small, consistent constraints keep AI-driven codebases safe, fast, and maintainable.
- Talk · AI Coding Summit 2025AI-First Architecture - Why Single Responsibility Matters More Than EverWhy the single responsibility principle becomes critical in AI-first architectures, and how to design systems that work seamlessly with AI tools.
The rise
First medals. Then classrooms. Then entrepreneurship.
National medals at WorldSkills.
2,000+ students, and 1.2M+ views of free courses on one platform alone.
Then two companies: one raised $1M and reached a million users in its first month, the other served 1,200+ businesses.

Away from the terminal, I'm a father of two girls, and I carry a camera almost everywhere. The freshest frames live in the photography corner.
Growing your career, or planning an event? I keep a limited number of free mentorship slots open, and I love a good stage.
