From silicon to cloud, across the world's most critical infrastructure — the same obsession with performance under constraint that drives me across an Ironman finish line and through a cockpit checklist is what I bring to every engineering organisation I lead. From Texas Instruments to Azure, from rebuilding Zenprise into a Citrix acquisition, to engineering Zero Trust security architecture at Pulse Secure, to building the world's first autonomous port operating system at Navis — I build systems that cannot be compromised and cannot go down. I go the full distance.
Patented inventor. 0→1 CTO. From DSP hardware at TI to autonomous port OS — I build at every layer of the stack.
Work & Patents →140.6 miles of swimming, cycling, and running. Endurance racing taught me that the finish line is a system design problem.
Training Journal →Licensed across most aircraft categories. The cockpit demands precision and pre-flight discipline — same as any mission-critical system.
Aviation Log →I've spent 25 years building technology that operates at the edge of what's acceptable — systems where failure has immediate, real-world consequences, and where security is not a feature, it's a foundation. That same standard is what I hold myself to everywhere else.
I started at the silicon level at Texas Instruments — writing the software that tells hardware how to behave. That instinct for how systems actually work, not just how they're supposed to work, has never left me.
At Microsoft I authored foundational patents in distributed systems, networking, and GPUs and built the server frameworks that became Azure. At Zenprise I rebuilt a struggling startup into a Gartner Magic Quadrant category leader in enterprise mobile management — and delivered the acquisition by Citrix. At Pulse Secure I led the transformation of a critical cybersecurity platform, architecting Zero Trust security frameworks and compliance infrastructure for some of the world's most security-sensitive organisations — including enterprises, governments, and critical infrastructure operators.
At Navis I brought that full-stack depth — hardware integration, distributed systems, and security-first design — to the hardest critical infrastructure problem in global logistics, building the world's first autonomous operating system for container port operations from scratch.
Three venture-backed exits. $2.5B+ in enterprise value. Currently building TrustMe.ai — AI governance and compliance infrastructure for regulated, security-sensitive environments.
I'm an Ironman triathlete. 140.6 miles of swimming, cycling, and running — in one go. The training taught me that the difference between finishing and not finishing is almost never physical. It's about how well you designed your system before the race started.
I'm also a licensed pilot across most aircraft categories. The cockpit demands the same pre-flight discipline and situational awareness that mission-critical software requires. You don't improvise at altitude.
This site is where I document the journey across all three — the builds, the races, the flights, and the lessons that bleed between them.
A 25-year track record building hardware-integrated, distributed systems for environments where downtime isn't a number in an SLA — it's a real-world consequence.
Race days, cockpit walkthroughs, build logs, and unfiltered thoughts on technology and leadership. All in one place.
