Technology changes.

Business challenges remain.

My role has never really changed.

I help organisations understand complex problems. Today I use Artificial Intelligence to explore new ways to solve them.

Capabilities

What I bring to the table

Business experience first. AI capability second. I identify where AI creates genuine value, design the solution and collaborate with technical specialists to make it real.

Business & Commercial

AI Solution Design

Transformation & Automation

Industry Experience

How I work

I can independently develop concepts, workflows, prompts, knowledge structures and AI-assisted prototypes. For complex integrations, security, infrastructure and production deployment, I work effectively with technical specialists.

01

Understand the business problem

Map the process, identify the friction, and define what success looks like.

02

Define the use case and expected value

Clarify scope, prioritise the highest-value AI application, and set realistic expectations.

03

Design and prototype the solution

Build a working concept — whether that is a workflow, assistant, agent or application.

04

Test, improve and prepare implementation

Validate the prototype against real requirements and prepare handover for production.

Tools and technologies I work with

I use these tools to prototype, automate and validate business solutions. For deep technical engineering, security and production architecture, I collaborate with specialist developers.

Research & Reasoning

Claude

Primary platform for deep reasoning, strategic analysis and AI-assisted consulting work.

ChatGPT

Daily platform for ideation, writing, custom GPTs, research and rapid experimentation.

Grok

Research, image generation and creative concept exploration.

Automation & AI Assistants

n8n

Workflow automation — connecting systems, removing manual steps and orchestrating multi-step processes.

Custom GPTs

Designing and deploying task-specific AI assistants grounded in business context and structured knowledge.

MCP

Model Context Protocol — understanding how AI systems connect to external tools, data sources and business applications.

Application Development

Bolt.new

AI-assisted rapid development of interactive prototypes, business tools and proof-of-concepts.

Next.js & React

The foundation of this application and other interactive tools built during prototyping.

Supabase

Experience

The Experience Behind the AI

Every role added something: industry knowledge, commercial instinct, or an understanding of how organisations actually work. This is the foundation that makes AI work in practice.

What Defines Me

Technology changes.

Business challenges remain.

For over 25 years I have helped organisations solve business problems. Today I use Artificial Intelligence to explore new ways to solve them.

AI Experience

From Business Challenge to Business Value

I start with the business problem, not the technology. Once the problem is understood, I design the AI approach, prototype the solution and prepare implementation with technical specialists.

Business Challenge

Business Value

Business Analysis

Understanding organisations, identifying bottlenecks and discovering where AI creates real business value.

Every AI project starts with understanding the business.

I analyse existing workflows, customer journeys and operational processes before any technology is discussed.

The objective is to understand the problem clearly before designing a solution.

Business AnalysisProcess MappingOpportunity DiscoveryCustomer JourneyOperational ImprovementROI Thinking

Understanding AI Technology

I understand the capabilities, limitations and architecture of modern AI systems.

This allows me to bridge the gap between business stakeholders and technical teams — ensuring AI solutions solve real business problems rather than becoming technology for its own sake.
