My Story
The short version of how I got here, and what I actually think. If you came looking for a CV, this covers the same ground with fewer bullet points.
I am a translator, not a magician.
Most of what gets written about AI is written for people who already understand it. That is backwards. My job is to take something that sounds complicated and hand it back to you in the language you would use with a friend.
I started with my own problems first.
Not with a client, and not with a course. With the repetitive parts of my own week — the things I was still doing by hand every Monday because nobody had ever stopped to ask whether they needed doing at all.
It went badly before it went well.
I want to be clear about that, because the internet is full of people who skip this part. The early attempts cost me time. What changed was staying with it long enough for the tools to become ordinary.
Now it is simply how I work.
I build with AI daily. This site was made that way. The projects were made that way. That is not a sales point — it is the reason I can tell you what is realistic and what is not.
Which is why the coffee costs a fiver.
Not because I need the money. Because it means the people who show up actually want the conversation, and neither of us spends an afternoon finding that out.
Off the clock.
Multi-day treks — the Annapurna Circuit, the Tour du Mont Blanc — CrossFit, and a GitHub full of unfinished side projects I have made peace with.
