About

I build the infrastructure that makes AI transformation actually work — not just the technology, but the governance, the capability, and the organisational change that determines whether AI sticks or stays a pilot. Over 20 years across Morgan Stanley, Walmart Global Tech, ANZ Bank, and IBM India, I have led enterprise AI and automation programmes at scale — building AI working guilds, delivering automation programmes generating 200+ FTE productivity gains, and managing technology portfolios up to $250M across global organisations. My work sits at the intersection of AI strategy and real-world implementation. I am sceptical of AI for its own sake and focused on what it takes to embed it meaningfully across complex organisations — the governance frameworks, the people capability, and the change management layer that most programmes skip. Currently exploring how these enterprise principles can be applied at a systems level — across industries, institutions, and geographies where AI adoption is moving fast but implementation architecture is lagging.
