The Architect of Human Potential

I started life as a software engineer in the space industry: a true computer nerd with no social skills.

Somewhere along the way, I realised that lifelong learning and human connection were the real engines of progress. That discovery changed everything.

Since then, I’ve built companies, created communities, written books, and coached hundreds of professionals, all around a single purpose: helping people and ideas reach their full potential.

My Mission

To create ecosystems where people can grow through creativity, community, and courage.

I believe that when you give people the right environment to think, learn, and collaborate, extraordinary things happen.

My Philosophy

  • Creativity is humanity’s superpower.

  • Community turns potential into progress.

  • Courage beats comfort every time.

Be curious. Be kind. Build things that matter.
That’s the Yorkshire Cowboy way.
