My passion lies at the intersection of purposeful technology and captivating experiences.

If we ran grocery stores the way we run banks data, we’d all starve. I’m serious. I’ve sat in the meetings. I’ve nodded along. I’ve helped build the Data Lakes.

In my 2025 Year in Review, I discuss the 'Architecture of Empathy.' I share the books that rewired my brain this year, the deep personal losses that shaped my view on AI, and why I am fighting to build an 'Invisible Bank' that actually cares.

The "Cloud Tax" is currently a key impediment for many Enterprise AI strategies. Between latency, privacy risks, and exploding costs, scaling AI can feel like an uphill battle. But the solution isn't just "more cloud"—it's a smart Hybrid Architecture

The single biggest risk to your bank right now isn't a competitor—it's the failure to connect your own initiatives.

This report explores the dual nature of economic growth, from its power to lift billions from poverty to its role in driving unprecedented environmental crises.

The cloud-LLM paradigm is a strategic dead end—a high-latency, stateless, and unsustainable 'mainframe' model.
