Human & Machine Intelligence Expert | Research & Industry with a Commercial Focus | Computational Neuroscience & Neurosymbolic Reasoning
Former CTO & Head of AI with expertise in applying advanced AI solutions across mining exploration and insurance industries. Specialised in developing responsible AI systems with a strong foundation in Python development and cognitive neuroscience principles. Having consulted for multiple enterprise clients, I bring a unique perspective shaped by my journey from a remote mining town in Western Australia to leadership roles in technology. My work bridges the gap between theoretical AI research and practical business applications, with a focus on safety and ethical implementation. I'm passionate about exploring the intersections of technology, philosophy, and neuroscience to develop more robust AI systems. When not diving into code or AI architecture, you'll find me hiking through Australia's landscapes or sharing knowledge with others. Based in Sydney, Australia. Open to discussing partnerships, consulting opportunities, or roles with forward-thinking AI organisations.
