The infrastructure that moves global commodities is fragile. I find out where it breaks.

Operational Due Diligence. Supply Chain Resilience. Critical National Infrastructure. I bridge the gap between macro-level geopolitical risk and the micro-level systemic failures that destroy asset value.

The world economy is an increasingly interlocked system, so a disruption anywhere is a disruption everywhere.

About

I've spent the last four years inside Tier-1 financial institutions and cross-sector consultancies — leading operational resilience audits, running M&A due diligence on acquisitions worth hundreds of millions, and stress-testing the infrastructure that underpins critical national assets from nuclear energy builds to high-frequency trading environments.

Before that, a Master's with Distinction in Cyber Security, Threat Intelligence & Digital Forensics, a decade of OSINT practice with the Project Owl community, and an early foundation in operational discipline under a former member of UK Special Forces.

I work at the intersection of physical systems and geopolitical risk — where a port closure, a sanctions designation, or a single vendor insolvency can cascade into an enterprise-level event. My focus now is on Global Supply Chain Defense, Strategic Risk Consulting, and Operational Due Diligence for organisations that understand the world is getting more volatile, not less.
