What I offer

As an operator, I have successfully brought differentiated computational modeling technology to market - e.g. in Biotech, Healthtech, and IOT.  My executive responsibilities have included business building, sales leadership, and technology & data strategy.

I provide complex due diligence support for start-ups and VCs, supporting fundraising in the US and UK.  I also sit on and advise Boards.  

How I think

  • Data, algorithms, and the question to be answered are not separable.  Systems thinking is required.

  • Statistics, ML, and AI are all based on the same classical thinking that is taught at school.  Causal requires Bayesian & network thinking.

  • Understand the domain, then the maths, and only then the code.  If you start with the code / models, you will be trapped inside somebody else's assumptions.

  • Listen not to what the market asks for, but for what the market needs.

  • Descriptive analytics trumps all.  Stare at the data and discover the patterns.  Be a detective, just like Columbo!

  • In multi-disciplinary companies and industries, the biggest opportunities as well as failures can come from the many languages used.  Scientists, engineers, software coders etc all think and speak differently.
