About

Engineer by training. Delivery lead by experience. Builder by choice.

My path is not a straight line, but every stage taught me one part of the same job: understand a system, plan the work, and deliver something people actually use.

Engineering gave me a structured way to break down technical problems and think about risk. Running projects and a business in Lagos taught me how suppliers, stock, customers and investors behave when money and deadlines are real. My MSc gave me the governance and stakeholder methods to deliver in complex organisations.

Since 2025 I have put all of that into software built with AI agents. I study how to prompt and brief agents so they take real workload off people, then I write the specifications, review every change, and take each build through testing and release. Privacy and honest claims are built in from the first decision.

I am open to conversations about roles in AI automation, data analysis, project management or business analysis, in the UK, Australia, Canada or Nigeria. I can bring the same approach to a company: find the repetitive work, automate it safely, and measure what changed.

Where HYVOI came from. It grew out of CareUtility, my first shift-coordination app, where I learned in-app subscriptions and Play Store release management. All four products are listed at mywellmate.com and on Wellmate Group Ltd's Google Play page.

Agentic AI & automation

I use AI agents to take work off people's plates

I believe the shift to AI is one of the biggest changes in how work gets done, and I practise it every day. Four of my builds are public products; about 20 more are tools and automations I built for my own work.

4Public products in the App Store and Google Play
~20Personal tools and automations built with AI agents
2AI coding agents run side by side on one codebase, with a shared handover file

How I work with agents

  • Brief like a project manager. Clear scope, constraints, exclusions and acceptance criteria before an agent writes anything.
  • Engineer the context. Plans, decision records and handover notes live in the repository, so any agent can pick up where another stopped.
  • Gate the output. Tests, CI and my own review on every change, with approval gates before anything irreversible.
  • Guard the data. Privacy rules and least-privilege access designed in, not added later.

Examples from my own work

  • Job search automation. An agent finds suitable roles and prepares applications while I am at work, and emails me a record of each one.
  • Report pipeline. Raw survey and public data turned into charted PDF and Word reports in code, not by hand.
  • Multi-agent development. Claude Code and Codex working on the same app, coordinated through a written master plan and handover file.
  • Teaching it. Live sessions showing people how to use AI agents to do real work for them.

What I can do for your team

  • Find the repetitive work in a process and automate it, with a person still approving what matters
  • Build internal tools, dashboards and reports with AI agents, fast and documented
  • Set up agent workflows your staff can trust: specifications, review gates and audit trails
  • Measure the time saved and report it honestly

Engineering case study · HYVOI

How a product goes from specification to store

HYVOI shows how I work: a governing plan kept in the code repository, an approval gate before each major milestone, and every architecture decision written down so another engineer can pick up the work.

HYVOI architecture. The Flutter app, the on-site kiosk and QR web check-in pass through Firebase Auth and App Check to Cloud Firestore in the EU and Cloud Functions in europe-west1.

Problem statement, scope and exclusions, data model and acceptance criteria, written before any code.

Step 2

Decide

Architecture choices recorded as decision records, with the options rejected and the reasons.

Step 3

Build

Built with AI coding agents against the specification. I review every change and keep a handover file current.

Step 4

Gate and ship

Tests and CI on both platforms, an approval gate per milestone, then store submission and release.

Data & research

Evidence I have collected, analysed and reported

Qualitative and quantitative work, each finished as a report with its methods and limitations stated plainly.

MSc dissertation · Qualitative · NVivo

Stakeholder engagement in complex public infrastructure projects

A cross-sector study of how engagement strategies manage conflict and affect performance on healthcare and education projects in South Wales. I designed the study, ran interviews, coded the data in NVivo and built the findings through thematic analysis.

Conflict managementCommunicationGovernanceProject performanceCross-sector delivery

Awarded as part of an MSc with Distinction, University of South Wales, 2025.

Survey research · n = 63 · 8 questions

Retirement age, health and wellbeing

Designed and ran a survey on attitudes to a rising State Pension age, then turned the results into a charted report.

Later retirement can harm older workers' wellbeing58.7%
Retirement age should depend on job and health46.0%
Support flexible retirement, earlier full pension79.4%
0%50%100%

Small, self-selected sample, so results are indicative rather than representative.

Secondary data analysis · Python · matplotlib

Workforce sickness absence evidence review

Combined ONS, HSE, NHS England, Deloitte and OECD data on absence, presenteeism and temporary staffing into charted funding proposals and briefings, with charts and documents generated in code.

4.96%NHS sickness absence, Sept 2024
5.29%NHS sickness absence, Sept 2025

Every figure is cited to its source, and context is kept separate from any claimed saving.

Metric design · Simulation testing

The Wellbeing Snapshot model

A composite score for MyWellMate that combines four signals with unequal weights, plus a separate confidence score so people can see how much data sits behind each number.

Confidence reflects data availability, source quality, coverage, freshness and baseline maturity. Tested internally across about 1,000 simulated scenarios; not clinically validated.

Project delivery & commercial

Results from the projects and businesses I worked in

Four years of project delivery, procurement and business development in Lagos, followed by programme design in the UK.

Business turnaround through key-account analysis

Original Hardware Stores (Nobox Ltd)
Lagos · 2023–2024

Data-led strategy

I joined a business close to shutting down, with low customer traffic and loosely structured operations. My market assessment showed that demand was heavily concentrated, so I stopped competing for the long tail of small buyers and went after the largest accounts.

Share of market value, from my analysis at the time.

  • Built a targeted product and acquisition plan, and negotiated with key buyers to commit to stock that had not yet landed in Nigeria
  • Secured a three-year commercial commitment that stabilised future sales
  • Promoted to General Manager within my first three months

Investment and supply chain for an import joint venture

OHS and DTC (Guangdong Dongtai) joint venture
Nigeria · 2023–2024

Investment & procurement

Helped attract investors and set up the operating structure connecting a Chinese furniture-accessory manufacturer with distribution in Nigeria: the equity split, a management committee, a dedicated funding account, stock and accounting controls, and distributor re-engagement.

Interior and joinery project delivery

TRT Arredo Ltd · Lagos · 2020–2024

Delivered interior and woodwork projects from procurement to handover, coordinating international suppliers and site teams, controlling stock and costs, and reporting to clients and management.

  • International procurement and supplier management
  • Site coordination, team supervision and client reporting
  • Inventory control and cost tracking across concurrent projects

Staff voice programme and pilot proposals

Swansea Bay University Health Board · Volunteer Wellbeing Champion · 2026

Designed HEARD, a peer-led programme where trained champions run listening sessions and route themes to named owners. Pitched a zero-cost technology pilot to a panel spanning Occupational Health, Workforce and OD, Digital and Information Governance.

  • Stakeholder mapping across clinical, operational and governance teams
  • Pilot measures defined before launch
  • Entered "Tap In", a one-tap morale screen, in a regional ideas challenge
