Welcome
Voice agents, automation, fractional CTO work: those are the tools. Here's the work itself.

30 years building technology and leading teams. 16+ at iiNet (now Vodafone Australia). A decade founding agencies and exiting one in six months. Today, building AI businesses that ship across Asia, Australia, and Europe.
How I help
Most engagements lean into one of three places: leading an organisation through the AI transition, integrating AI into a technical team, or advising executives on strategy. The fourth column is the work that comes out: the systems, agents, and automation that follow from that work.
AI is dragging every team through a transition, and most leaders haven't navigated one like this before. Fear, uncertainty, and quiet resistance are real. I draw on 16+ years leading teams at scale to help organisations make the shift with confidence: calming concerns, building belief, and giving leaders a playbook to bring their people with them, not against them.
Where does AI actually move the needle for your business? I sit with executive teams to cut through the hype, map AI to real revenue, cost, and customer levers, and design a strategy you can act on this quarter, not a deck that lives in SharePoint.
Fractional CTO services, with AI baked into the development approach itself, not bolted on after. I use AI across recruitment, architecture, and delivery. At GroupFound, a senior team running 100% AI-first with zero traditional coding is shipping in a quarter of the conventional time. I don't just advise on AI. I run my teams with it.
The hands-on side: training staff at every level to use AI as an ally rather than a threat, plus building the systems that put AI to work. Voice agents that call and qualify your leads, automation that handles comms, summaries, and reporting. Concrete tools, not theory.
On AI
“AI isn't just changing how we work. It's raising what's possible. Expectations of what teams can deliver are about to grow fast, and the businesses that move now will set the pace everyone else is chasing. Sit it out, and you'll spend the next decade trying to catch up.”
What I'm building
A portfolio spanning AI, marketing, voice, and social platforms. Each one is a working business, not a deck.
AI voice agent solutions for businesses. Intelligent conversational agents that handle calls, bookings, and customer interactions naturally.
AI marketing analytics that explains, not just charts. An AI analyst reviews Google Ads, Meta Ads, GA4, and Search Console every day, surfaces what changed and why it matters, and writes the client report.
Social networking platform for entrepreneurs, built fully AI-first. Zero traditional, line-by-line coding. Senior engineers facilitating AI-driven development, on track to deploy within three months of a March kickoff.
The technology and AI arm of Mindsheep. Building custom AI tools, automations, and solutions for businesses ready to work smarter and eliminate repetitive tasks.
AI automation consultancy and implementation. Helping businesses adopt AI practically, removing the tedious work so teams can focus on creative, strategic priorities.
The digital marketing and lead generation agency David founded in 2016. Now AI-transformed end-to-end, with faster, smarter campaigns for Australian businesses across real estate, trades, retail, and professional services.

Read case study→Social Networking / AI-First Engineering
A platform on track to deploy within three months of a March kickoff: work that would conventionally take a team of six engineers six to seven months. Built with zero traditional, line-by-line coding.
Read case study→Where the work happens
Most days run an AI-strategy boardroom call in Sydney before lunch, a build session with developers in Manila on an AI-first workflow in the afternoon, and a London or Dubai conversation about leading the team through the change by evening. Engineering and delivery teams across the Philippines, Slovakia, Indonesia, and Australia.

Whether you're a CEO trying to figure out where AI fits, a founder who needs technical leadership, or a team leader who wants their people trained up, I'd love to hear what you're working on.
