Technical depth, connected to operational reality.

I am an IT Architect with more than twenty years of experience in infrastructure, operations and complex technical environments.

My work has covered network architecture, server infrastructure, hybrid cloud and Azure, monitoring, incident management, problem management, automation and business-critical real-time environments. Most of it has been in places where downtime, latency and instability are not abstract risks but things that affect real operations.

I am especially interested in how organisations can use data and AI in a practical way. Not as isolated tools or demos, but as part of a larger operating model where infrastructure, data, process and ownership work together.

My strength is connecting technical depth with operational reality. I care about systems that work, can be understood, can be measured and can be improved over time. The most interesting problems are rarely about a single piece of technology. They are about whether the foundation underneath is good enough for the thing you are trying to build on top of it.

This site is where I write about those topics.
