About

I build learning systems that produce deployable professionals. Not just trained ones. Most organisations design learning for institutional comfort. Compliance checkboxes, completion rates, filled calendars. Then wonder why nothing changes on the job. That's not a skills gap. That's the wrong centre. I specialise in campus-to-corporate transitions, where the gap between training performance and job performance is widest and most expensive. My work starts with an uncomfortable diagnosis, not a curriculum. Across Capgemini, Revature, and iamneo: ▸ Cut time-to-deployment for engineering graduates ▸ 800+ tech certifications. 15%+ learning hour growth in a year ▸ 40% YoY business growth running a KM and digital learning practice ▸ 100% ILT to blended. Outcomes intact. If you're serious about building talent, not just training it, let's talk. Coffee optional. Candour isn't.
