Description

I work as a fractional Chief AI Officer and senior AI/EdTech advisor for healthcare organisations, EdTech ventures, and mid-market companies preparing for the EU AI Act. My sweet spot is the boundary where research-grade thinking meets production reality - when "let's experiment with LLMs" needs to become "let's ship something compliant, observable, and useful."

What clients tend to get from me:

Honest direction, not hype
Hands-on depth - I still write code and review architectures
Native EU regulatory fluency (AI Act, GDPR, NIS2, public procurement)

If you're scaling beyond your first AI pilots, navigating EU compliance, evaluating build-vs-buy, or planning an EdTech platform - happy to talk.
