About

I am a UK national living in Urla, on the coast west of İzmir, since August 2025. I have spent more than twenty years in technology infrastructure, with product management along the way and a stretch running construction projects on Procore. That mix is why I am comfortable owning a system from the first conversation to the server it runs on.

I am the technical co-founder of Rayden AI, a UK-incorporated AI consultancy working in recruitment and healthcare. I own the technical function: architecture, build, security and the infrastructure underneath.

Day to day I build with Claude Code as my engineering partner, on Node.js and Express, React and Vite, Next.js, SQLite and Turso, N8N, Docker, Puppeteer and the Anthropic SDK, deployed to self-hosted Ubuntu servers and Vercel. Right now most of my time goes into AI tooling for education: curriculum content pipelines, teacher planning tools, and early work on AI-produced animated learning content for schools.

Away from the keyboard I fish, fly drones and keep a garden going in the Aegean heat. I have held an Arsenal season ticket for years, which is now a long commute.
