Insatiably curious, unusually energetic, and on the bleeding edge of science, innovation and agentic technology.
I spent fifteen years building CPG companies. Along the way I invented Carrot Bacon, took the Most Innovative Product award at the Chicago International Sweets and Snacks Show, won over $250,000 across seven grants, and built distribution Canada-wide and down both coasts of the United States.

TECHNOLOGY, AI & WHAT COMES NEXT
Speaking Engagements
I deliver keynote presentations on the state of technology and AI, helping business owners understand what’s changing, what matters, and where to start.
My speaking engagements include an AI keynote at the Perth AGM.
My background spans inventing and commercialising consumer products, securing grant funding, and building distribution. That experience keeps the conversation grounded in customers, costs and what a business can actually use.

Putting agentic AI to work
Through Forgify and AI Butler, I’m building around custom code, connected tools and shared business context. The practical work is giving AI access to the right files and systems, defining its permissions, and making the results reviewable.
Keynotes, practical demonstrations and conversations about science, innovation and emerging technology. I also explore these ideas through A Wilder Future on Trent Radio—turning curiosity into questions worth asking.
