AI-Assisted Software Development Lifecycle

I don't treat AI as a shortcut — I embed it across every phase of delivery so teams move with clarity, quality, and speed.

Human in the loop

AI accelerates; engineers own decisions, security, and craft.

Measurable outcomes

Cycle time, defect rate, and team velocity — not vanity metrics.

Team enablement

I train teams to adopt AI workflows sustainably, not depend on them blindly.

Engineering leader with a psychology edge

I bridge high-level technology and human behavior — championing AI-assisted delivery across the org.

With an MBA, MSc in Psychology, and more than a decade of software development experience, I build cultures where collaboration and innovation are as psychologically sound as they are technically robust.

Today I helm an integrated time-tracking platform aligned with Wagepoint's payroll ecosystem — ensuring quality, scalability, and on-time delivery at every release.
