I operate at the intersection of strategic business leadership and transformative AI research. As a Director at Grosvenor Aptec, I oversee complex operations across Telecare, Fire & Security, and Aluminium Fenestration. I am passionate about leveraging technology—from physical security infrastructure to advanced neural networks and analogue recording systems—to improve human lives. Parallel to my corporate leadership, I am a published researcher specializing in Genetic Algorithms and Collaborative AI, focusing on wellbeing and relaxation games that evolve Brian Eno’s generative music paradigm into immersive, restorative environments. My current work includes developing AI-driven audio interventions for memory and cognitive engagement, and creating sensory-friendly AI environments for SEND and SN populations. I remain a musician at heart—guitarist for Baby Brave and a practitioner of hybrid production blending digital tools with vintage analogue hardware—striving to keep the human, expressive core in sound even as technology evolves.…I operate at the intersection of strategic business leadership and transformative AI research.
