About
Senior product leadership for agent-ready enterprise data and APIs.
London-based enterprise product leader. For two decades I have led the data platforms and APIs that large financial institutions run on, and I now make them agent-ready: the reliable, governable foundation that AI agents act on.
Head of the Bloomberg Data License API Platform. Own the direction and delivery across multiple engineering teams for the API powering Bloomberg's flagship enterprise data product, serving multi-million monthly request volumes across thousands of institutional clients.
Mathematics has been the constant through my life, and it is where the taste for rigour and proof I bring to this work was formed. I write a curated series of mathematics books and run OlympiadHQ, a free olympiad-maths platform for teenagers.
