I turn frontier AI into production systems inside the enterprise — and build AI-native products that ship.

Generating software is cheap; trusting it is expensive. I work in that gap — turning frontier AI into governed, audit-grade production systems.

15 years deploying enterprise AI across APAC. Today: technical advisor to enterprises adopting LLMs, and founder of Agenticality, an AI-native venture studio with three live products.

The intersection I work at

Most people who can brief a CISO can't write the prototype. Most people who can ship the prototype can't navigate enterprise reality. I do both. For two years at Microsoft's Sydney Innovation Hub I've advised enterprises and governments through real LLM deployments — discovery, evaluation, prototype, production.

In parallel I founded Agenticality, an AI-native venture studio where I personally own prompt engineering, agent orchestration, evaluation, retrieval, and full-stack deployment across three live products. The studio is the proof: I don't just advise on AI — I build and ship it.

THREE PILLARS

How I work.

01 / DEPLOY

Frontier AI in the enterprise

  • ·Technical advisory from discovery to production
  • ·Evaluation frameworks that decide deployments on evidence
  • ·Hands-on workshops and architecture reviews with customer engineering teams

02 / BUILD

AI-native products

  • ·Prompt engineering, agents, evals, RAG, full-stack
  • ·Three live products on one shared agentic foundation
  • ·Agents run the build–ship–learn loop; judgment is the scarce input

03 / GOVERN

Trust as a discipline

  • ·Evaluation frameworks that make 'is this working?' answerable on regulated data
  • ·Audit-grade, evidence-first output (see MetaScan-D365)
  • ·Human-in-the-loop oversight — agents write, I edit

ABOUT

Forward-deployed engineering for the LLM era.

I practice forward-deployed engineering inside enterprises across healthcare, financial services, insurance, and government. My process is discovery → evaluation → prototype → production, so systems survive contact with real users on day 30, not day 1.

At Microsoft's Sydney Innovation Hub I shaped the technical framework for the Australian Public Service's generative-AI trials. Before Agenticality, I led applied AI engagements across APAC, shipping retrieval systems on regulated data, agentic workflows, and evaluation harnesses that make 'is this working?' answerable.
