I don’t believe in buzzwords. I believe in solving problems.

My career has been shaped by a simple obsession: making things work better — faster, safer, and with less manual effort. That’s what led me into DevOps, and eventually into DevSecOps and Site Reliability Engineering. I’ve spent over a decade building secure, scalable systems across startups, enterprises, and government-linked organizations.

Whether I’m leading automation at Olympus Corporation or building tech strategy as CTO at OurCodeLab, I focus on practical outcomes: secure CI/CD pipelines, containerized environments, automated patching, centralized logging, and clean documentation that teams actually use.

I’ve worked with tools like Docker, Terraform, Jenkins, ELK, Kafka, SonarQube, and Kong — not because they’re trendy, but because they solve real problems. I write in Python, Bash, Groovy, and Java when needed. I document everything. And I don’t shy away from legacy systems or messy handovers — I fix them.

I’m currently deepening my SAST, SCA expertise and always open to collaborations that value clarity, security, and long-term thinking. If you’re building something that needs structure, automation, or just a fresh set of eyes — let’s talk.

Business Growth Mindset

At the Business Growth Mindset we help business owners and c-suite executives flourish and grow. 

We work with highly driven top performers to create meaningful change that impact their business and life through mastering a growth mindset and implementing systems and processes that support scaling.

By applying core principles, you can eliminate many business related frustrations.  You can have great employees who share your vision, communicate with one another, demonstrate accountability and solve problems. You will not only create a business that runs seamlessly, but you will also grow your business.

This is for anyone who wants more freedom, more time and more control.

Business and Growth Advisor

We help businesses go from good to great by (structuring your "fruit salad brain", so you can see your path clearly and predictably) creating market dominating, competitor crushing strategies. We help you and your team be accountable so they can execute and deliver on time.

Most business owners succumb to three problems when running their business.

🤦‍♀️ Uncertainty and Rudderless
🤦 Stagnation
🤦🏾‍♀️ Dependency on self (key Person Risk)

These three problems lead to distraction, procrastination and confusion which means the circumstances begin to govern your outcomes when in fact it’s the decisions you make that determine your outcome not the circumstances you are in.

Having been involved in 80 ventures I discovered that failure and success leave clues. For a business to succeed and create freedom for you the owner it requires…

👉 Strategy - Focus, clarity and direction
🙋‍♀️ Performance and Results
📚 Education and Accountability

Once you master these three areas you will achieve predictable results.

We created Growth School on the countless lessons I learned along both the practitioner and academic  journey and evolved the program from the lessons learned from our clients.

Our community are empowered, caring and driven business owners.

Growth School

This is much more than a course it's an all in sales and marketing coaching program for business owners wanting to grow their business to $1M in revenue.  Customers On Demand provides you with the power of a structured, strategic approach to your business growth—one that transforms leads into revenue and revenue into long-term success.

At its core, this program is about building you a sustainable, scalable system for attracting, converting, and closing high-quality leads. It strips away your guesswork, the trial-and-error, and the feast-or-famine cycle that you struggle with, replacing it with a proven blueprint for your consistent business growth.

Key Transformations You Will Experience:

👉 Clarity Over Chaos: Instead of chasing random marketing tactics, you will learn how to implement a lead-generation system that delivers results.

👉 Control Over Revenue: By mastering sales funnels, messaging, and direct outreach, you’ll no longer rely on luck or referrals—you’ll create predictable income.

👉 Confidence in Selling: Selling will no longer feel like an awkward or pushy process for you. You will develop the skills to guide prospects seamlessly from interest to investment.

👉 A Business That Works for You: Instead of being trapped in the cycle of inconsistent cash flow, you will build a machine that generates leads and revenue—on demand.

👉 Mindset Mastery: Success isn’t just about tactics; it’s about cultivating the mindset of a leader who executes relentlessly and adapts strategically.

The ultimate value of this program is that it gives you a repeatable framework—one that, when followed and mastered, will allow you to generate leads, close more deals, and build a business that is profitable, predictable, and powerful.

It’s not just about making money—it’s about having control over your growth, your time, and your future.
