Situation: AI tooling is still siloed by team. No shared intelligence layer connecting how the business thinks, decides, and operates across functions.

Action: Leading the org-wide rollout of Claude Code with training enablement across all functions. Designing the backend infrastructure for a shared agentic intelligence layer that connects knowledge and decision-making across the business.

Result: In progress. Building toward a future where every function operates on a shared AI-native information layer, not isolated tools.

Situation: Traditional data providers couldn't cover niche mid-market segments the business needed to reach.

Action: Designed and deployed 50+ multi-agent AI workflows using Clay, Apify, and custom pipelines to scrape unconventional channels, enrich company data, and score leads automatically.

Result: Generated 2,000+ net-new, highly engaged B2B leads in six weeks. Expanded pipeline into segments competitors couldn't touch.

Situation: Manual prospecting, fragmented pipelines, and no automation layer across Growth, Operations, and Sales.

Action: Led a cross-functional team to architect and deploy a unified CRM integration with custom data pipelines using n8n, Claude, and Gemini.

Result: Fully automated self-serve deal flow running without human intervention. From lead capture to qualified handoff.

Situation: Repetitive busy work consuming bandwidth across the organisation, with no systematic approach to automation.

Action: Designed and executed a dedicated L&D day guiding the entire workforce to audit internal workflows from first principles and build functional AI agents.

Result: 105 functional AI agents built in a single day. Generated a validated pipeline of high-impact automation opportunities across all departments.

Situation: The company's understanding of its total addressable market was based on traditional methods with limited reach and visibility.

Action: Applied AI-augmented prospecting and intelligence approaches across Growth, Operations, and Sales. Used automated targeting and enrichment to map market segments that manual methods had missed.

Result: Discovered a 40% larger TAM through AI-augmented intelligence and targeting, unlocking previously invisible market segments.

Situation: The legal, risk, and compliance team was spending significant time on routine queries, increasing reliance on external counsel.

Action: Engineered a RAG-based AI agent trained on internal legal documentation to resolve routine queries and automate compliance tasks across the entire legal, risk, and compliance function.

Result: The team shifted focus to high-value strategic work while external counsel costs were reduced. Routine query resolution time dropped significantly.

Situation: The company needed robust governance and financial controls for its digital asset operations at enterprise scale.

Action: Built and led the governance, risk, and financial operations function. Established controllership frameworks, compliance processes, and reporting infrastructure.

Result: Delivered institutional-grade governance and financial controls that enabled the business to operate with confidence at scale.

Situation: Limited visibility into token supply dynamics and digital asset market intelligence, making strategic decisions harder to inform with data.

Action: Designed and built a bespoke token supply analysis and intelligence capability using custom data pipelines, blockchain explorer tools, and systematic audits across crypto assets.

Result: Delivered a market-leading token intelligence capability that became a key strategic input for leadership and business decisions.

Situation: No systematic process for managing high-volume transfers and accounting across the business.

Action: Designed and built a bespoke transfer and accounting system leveraging Jira, Google Sheets, BigQuery, and Looker for streamlined financial controls.

Result: Streamlined operations with efficient transfers and robust financial controls from day one.

Situation: Transitioning from a decade in military aviation into the technology sector, needing to bridge the gap between operational leadership and commercial strategy.

Action: Co-led a 10 person operations team through the planning and execution of multiple operations, managing preparedness and training for squadron personnel and aircraft.

Result: All operations executed successfully. Developed a new training program that led to team member promotions and a leadership award.

Situation: Aviation safety incidents required systematic investigation and actionable improvements to safety culture.

Action: Investigated 12 aviation safety incidents as an Aviation Safety Investigator and provided detailed recommendations to higher commanders.

Result: Over 30 safety recommendations implemented, improving Army Aviation safety culture and operational procedures.

Situation: No convenient way for serving Australian Defence Force members to get quality coffee, especially those deployed overseas.

Action: Built an automated online coffee company with streamlined international logistics to deliver fresh coffee to deployed ADF members on operations.

Result: Profitable veteran-owned business with international logistics capability, donating proceeds to Australian veteran charities.
