I write about AI, and what it takes to actually implement it.
By day I work at McKinsey with QuantumBlack on AI projects. Before that I trained as a doctor at Cambridge and interned at a Silicon Valley medical AI startup. This site is where those worlds meet: essays on technology and change, what healthcare taught me about both, and the occasional post on health and fitness.
What I write about
AI Implementation
Where AI is actually worth implementing, and the practical road from pilot to production.
Change Management
The human side: why people resist new tools, and what actually shifts habits, incentives and trust.
Healthcare & AI Adoption
Technology inside clinical settings, where the stakes are higher, the rules stricter and trust harder won.
Health & Fitness
Training, sleep and habits. An occasional detour, written with a doctor's scepticism.
