Founder at Nearhuman / robotics engineer / Bristol

I turn early ideas into things that actually work.

Products. Prototypes. Companies. I work where robotics, embedded systems, and starting companies overlap. I like the messy phase where something has to function before anyone gets excited about it.

What I do

I build, engineer, and carry things into the world.

When a project is early, messy, and real, this is where I am most useful. Three roles keep showing up in my work, and they usually happen at the same time.

01 Build the first version
02 Handle the hard technical part
03 Get the work in front of people
Build

Take a rough idea and make the first real version.

I like the part where a concept still looks half-formed. That is usually the best moment to make it tangible and give people something real to react to.

  • Prototype quickly so the conversation stops being theoretical.
  • Cut through ambiguity and decide what matters first.
  • Get a working version into the room as early as possible.
Engineer

Handle the technical bits that cannot be faked.

Robotics, electronics, and embedded systems only matter if they behave in the real world. That part of the work needs patience, clear thinking, and a willingness to stay close to the details.

  • Work across robotics, electronics, and embedded systems.
  • Solve practical problems instead of dressing them up in slide language.
  • Keep the technical side grounded in something usable.
Carry

Make the work visible to the people who matter.

A project is not finished when it works. It also needs a company, a clear message, and enough visibility that other people understand why it matters.

  • Shape the company around the work, not just the technical output.
  • Explain the work simply enough that other people get it fast.
  • Let real results create the press, partnerships, and trust.

Proof

A few hard facts.

The point is simple: current company, real technical recognition, and outside coverage. No filler needed.
