Decade plus experience in IT, focus on service management and operations. I grew a 700k MSP into a 12mil MSP that we leveraged through acquisition into a 50+ mil MSP. I focused on operational efficiency and making sure that I could hire literally anyone to fill our team rather than only hiring ringers. If its COGS related I'll hold you accountable, if its below the line I'll still yell at you. I've never owned an MSP and so I dont get caught up in entrepreneur paradoxes; I can probably fix your printer.

My early career saw me working as a software engineer and technical leader across multiple startups. But it was my passion for education that led me to devote the last 5+ years to reimagining how we teach people to code professionally.

Over the last half decade I have had the opportunity to work in the NGO space and build alternative education systems from the ground up. Along the way I have learned a lot about how to teach well, how to build systems that teach well, and how traditional education systems fall short.

Now, my primary aim is to spread skills to educators. To empower those who empower others.

I lead the Guild of Educators, a community I founded to empower tech educators through shared resources, support, and evidence-based teaching practices. Additionally, I run Prelude, where I provide rigorous technical training, as well as consultation, and coaching for technical educators, and organisations with education functions (for example grad programs and similar).
