AI delivery consultant building agentic AI tools at Actua, including tailored travel proposals and itineraries.

Message

At Actua, I’m building an AI consultancy focused on translating business expertise into practical tools and workflows. I’m developing a proof of concept with a travel-industry client to draft tailored proposals and itineraries from customer requirements, product data, and consultants’ expertise.

I built an agentic AI framework and application to take projects from initial ideas through development and testing, with human oversight at key stages. My work brings together agent orchestration, machine learning, and knowledge systems.

At Skybridge, I built and ran a blockchain infrastructure and data-products business, combining commercial ownership with hands-on technical delivery. I developed machine-learning systems to improve data-provider performance and revenue, as well as an internal RAG assistant to help consultants understand complex architecture, smart contracts, and code.

Earlier, I led technology delivery at Ant Group, Moneycorp, Barclays UK, Visa Europe, and Google UK. That work included introducing an Agile software development lifecycle across approximately ten Scrum teams at Moneycorp and delivering mobile payments projects at Visa Europe that received industry awards.
