What happens when an architect becomes obsessed with reimagining how buildings get built? You get 30 years of breakthrough innovation that transforms entire industries. I don't just implement design technology. I invent the future of how we conceive, design, and deliver the built environment. My superpower? Translating abstract design challenges into intelligent systems that generate solutions no one has considered before. THE STORY THAT DEFINES ME: Started as an architect who saw technology's potential when others saw complexity. Built my first digital fabrication lab when the industry thought robots belonged in factories, not design studios. Founded a $70M SaaS platform at Lendlease that compressed building design from months to minutes. Now leading digital transformation at GRNSW, creating industry-first digital twin ecosystems that integrate IoT, drone mapping, and real-time analytics. WHAT I ACTUALLY DO: I build "system-of-systems" solutions that encode decades of industry knowledge into intelligent software. Not automation that replicates current processes, but computational intelligence that discovers entirely new possibilities. My platforms connect design intent with manufacturing reality, supplier networks, and construction constraints in ways that traditional design technology cannot achieve. RECENT WINS: → Led international teams of 40+ across 5 countries developing computational design platforms → Secured $70M+ funding by demonstrating revolutionary approach to building automation → Achieved 50% operational efficiency gains through strategic technology integration → Built digital twin ecosystems spanning 30+ physical assets with real-time optimization WHAT DRIVES ME: First-principles thinking. Return to fundamentals, question everything, then rebuild processes as intelligent systems. My rule-based platforms don't just solve today's design challenges. They anticipate tomorrow's possibilities. Looking for my next challenge leading global design technology transformation at a visionary organization ready to fundamentally advance what's possible in the built environment. Ready to discuss how computational intelligence can transform your design practice?
