About
I help the world’s largest organisations take agentic AI, from conversational assistants to autonomous execution, beyond the demo and into secure, scalable systems that survive production.
Principal AI Architect on the Copilot Acceleration Team (CAT) at Microsoft, specialised in Microsoft Copilot Studio. With deep expertise in generative, conversational and agentic AI, I work with Microsoft’s most strategic enterprise customers — and closely with product leadership and program management — to get conversational AI live and keep it running.
Much of the job is translating between two worlds. I channel what customers actually hit in production back into product improvements, and turn product capability into practical guidance, reusable samples and architectural patterns that teams can adopt without a consultant in the room.
Twenty years in, the path has run from Grenoble and a year at Oxford Brookes, through maintaining supply-chain software in Paris, to managing a delivery in Sapporo, to retail business intelligence, and now to conversational and agentic AI. Projects along the way have taken me across Europe, North Africa, the Middle East and Japan. I have been based in Atlanta since 2014.
