About
Building intelligent systems and strategic solutions.
I am a senior solution architect and technologist with a PhD in Computer Science, where I researched scalable, robust intelligent transport architectures using machine learning. I bring deep experience across software analysis, design, development, technical project management, research, and entrepreneurship.
My work spans consulting, product strategy, architecture, and predictive analytics for smart cities, transport systems, digital platforms, and enterprise applications. I was endorsed by Tech City UK as exceptional digital-technology talent.
