I've spent ten years being the person who made the spreadsheet.Now I teach the craft underneath it — the tools, the frameworks, and the AI workflows on top.

The short version: I'm a project manager. I've run programs at TD Bank, TELUS Health, on EdTech contracts, and at IBM — built PMOs from scratch, delivered 60+ enterprise implementations, written the stage-gate playbooks, taken SOC 2 from zero to certified. More recently, I've been integrating AI into the way I plan, write, and track work. Not the “AI for everything” version — the specific, narrow places where it actually helps.
Then people started asking me how I did it. So I started recording.
I'm not a thought leader. I'm not an AI influencer. I'm a working PM, and what I publish is what I actually use on the job: the templates, the playbooks, the goal-setting structures, the frameworks that survive turnover — and the AI workflows that extend all of it. AI is a prominent thread. It's not the only thread. If you're the person on your team who suspects there's a better way — this is probably for you.
Ten years, six stops
01The mainframe years
I started as a mainframe developer, writing COBOL for banks at a services firm in Bangalore. That stretch taught me the technical foundations — SDLC, change windows, dependencies, what a stable release actually looks like. I liked shipping software. I didn't love the distance between the people building it and the people using it. I kept ending up in the meetings where that distance got sorted out, and I realised I liked those more.
02Becoming a PM, officially
I moved to Johannesburg with IBM to run integrations for a telco. First time carrying a schedule, a budget, and a room of people. First time watching a project miss its date for reasons nobody could predict. Learned to write things down.
03Sixty COTS implementations
Four years at TD Bank in Toronto, running 60+ COTS implementations across retail and commercial banking. This is where I learned what enterprise delivery actually means: the 9th migration is where the real problems show up, and the playbook has to survive turnover.
04Writing the PMO from scratch
Led the first GCP migration at TELUS Health. There was no PMO framework — so I wrote one. Stage gates, risk taxonomy, status cadence. That document is still in use.
05SOC 2 in six months
Joined an EdTech company as Head of Delivery on contract. We took SOC 2 Type 1 from zero to certified in six months. Also shipped a cloud migration three months ahead. Startups move differently — fewer cycles to get alignment, higher tolerance for 'let's try it'.
06Teaching what I actually do
I started integrating AI into my own workflows for a year before I said anything about it. Then I realised most PMs I talked to were either avoiding it or using it wrong. The YouTube channel started as a way to share the specific prompts that were working. Turns out a lot of people wanted them.
A few numbers, told as stories
Retail and commercial banking. Each one taught me something about what breaks at scale.
Over eight months. AI summaries, async updates, fewer meetings, better visibility.
From zero to certified. The shortest path isn't documented — so I documented it.
Migration delivered three months ahead. The AI-drafted runbook took three hours.
