I build AI-native software and have more than a decade of experience managing and leading AI portfolio projects.

I started coding at 18 as an artillery forward observer, building a mortar fire-computation calculator on an army-issued system. At 21, I founded Ophidia Medical Technologies and sold its first industrial smart-label system to GSK, combining connected labelling hardware, traceability software, and workflow logic for pharmaceutical operations.

After founding Ophidia, I worked at McKinsey & Company, advising CEOs, CFOs, and senior operators across heavy industrials, manufacturing, pharmaceuticals and healthcare on a range of issues from the use of AI in drug discovery to working closely with industrial plants, to drive operational transformation. I also worked on various projects related to procurement optimisation within industrial operators and healthcare providers.

I later served as a technology portfolio manager at The Portland Trust, working on tech and AI-enabled healthcare systems, digital coordination platforms, and infrastructure programmes in the Middle East to leverage technology and promote sustainable, private-sector-led economic development. I led the production of the Palestinian Healthcare Transformation and Partnership Blueprint, and served as the advisor to Palestine’s health minister as part of a UK-based team supporting the Palestinian government’s reform effort. More recently, I led the design and implementation of AI-powered mobile health hubs across Israel to bring screening and post-treatment services to remote populations.

I studied Land Economy at Cambridge, where I produced a working paper based on a model I built to estimate the optimal level of social diversity for successful economic outcomes. I received a BA in Archaeology & Anthropology at UCL. That training shaped how I think about physical systems: tools, machines, sites, materials, artefacts, and infrastructure as active agents rather than passive objects that shape how people, institutions, and economies function.

Outside work, I write, read, row, and remain interested in art, archaeology, industrial systems, and the long-run development of civilisation – from hospitals, steel mills to space.
