AI keynotes and workshops that translate the hype into decisions.
I have built and sold technology businesses across two cycles, from the dotcom era to the AI frontier. I help boards, leadership teams and conference audiences work out what this moment actually asks of them.

Two ways in
The talk that reframes it. The workshop that lands it.
Most engagements start with a keynote. The rooms that get the most from it add a workshop, so the ideas turn into decisions the team owns rather than notes they file.

Keynotes
A clear read on AI for the rooms deciding what to do about it.

A full cycle of operating experience, not a bio updated last year.
I started out in the last great technology cycle and watched the dotcom era from the inside, including a decade at ANZ on the plumbing of global finance. Since then I have led product and operating teams at Hava and Vibrato, and today I am a partner and Chief Product Officer at Emanda, building at the frontier of applied AI. The talks and workshops come from that vantage point.
That arc matters because the question in every room right now is judgement under uncertainty: what repeats, what is genuinely new, and what to do about it. It is easier to answer if you have seen a cycle turn before.
