Stripping away noise to find the signal.

Strategic consulting with an extreme data bias. I build systems that make the right decisions inevitable.

Teaching a battery when to buy.

A greedy heuristic is a local optimum with good PR. I rebuilt intraday energy arbitrage as a linear program over 105,000 variables, then let the solver find the global maximum.

FIG. 02 · EGYPT · POPULATION IN RELIEFRAYSHADER / R

The Nile, reigning in relief.

400 m hexagonal population cells rasterised, shaded, and ray-traced. The result looks like a map. It argues like a thesis: in Egypt, geography is still destiny.

§ 02  /  About

I help organisations navigate complexity by building systems and creating strategies that make the right decisions inevitable. My background spans tech, AI, and music, where I focus on stripping away the noise to find the signal. When I’m not building digital systems, I’m usually deconstructing physical ones, reading books that have nothing to do with each other, or exploring the silence of the Red Sea with a scuba tank.
