hello
2008
Joined Northern Trust and rotated across Fund Accounting, Transfer Agency, Middle Office, Corporate Actions and Custody — building domain expertise across the full breadth of asset servicing operations.
2014
Designed and implemented a data-driven first-line Risk & Control framework across Fund Accounting, Transfer Agency and Middle Office in India and Manila — reimagining how operational risk was identified, measured and managed.
2018
Applied quantitative methods to surface the real issues hiding behind operational symptoms. Developed and ran an ML Bootcamp — teaching data science and machine learning to 260 people with zero prior coding or maths background.
2021
Led the build of an MLOps platform for Fund Accounting from the ground up. Brought machine learning and AI into core accounting workflows — using data and quantitative methods to solve problems that had previously only been seen through their symptoms.
2024
Led the Transformation & Innovation office. Conceived and shipped internal and client-facing products that transformed Fund Accounting at scale. Two products featured in Scrip Spring Issue 2025 and WatersTechnology.
2025
Building Candela — FINBOURNE’s agentic AI platform that connects directly to live investment data via the Model Context Protocol. Agents that don’t just answer questions but execute real workflows: fund onboarding, compliance checks, portfolio analysis — against production financial data.
I build at the intersection where 17 years of financial domain depth meets engineering instinct — a combination rare enough that I’ve spent most of my career doing work that didn’t exist in a job description yet.
I don’t prototype. Candela — the agentic AI platform I’m building at FINBOURNE — executes real investment workflows against live production data. Fund onboarding, compliance checks, portfolio analysis: done by agents, not described by them.
I once taught machine learning to 260 people who had never written a line of code. That instinct — to make the genuinely complex feel inevitable — is how I build products too.
