I spent 16 years in Hong Kong equity markets, in sell-side research, at a hedge fund and leading equity advisory and sales. Now I help finance teams cut through the AI hype and get real work done faster, in ways your compliance team can live with.

How I help
Most finance teams have AI licences and a few enthusiasts. Few have workflows that hold up on a Monday morning. I help close that gap.

hype → paybackHands-on workshops built on real finance work, from earnings notes and pitch materials to client emails and data pulls, so people leave using AI, not just hearing about it.
practice, not slidesDesign AI-assisted processes with the controls, review steps and data boundaries regulated firms need, so pilots become everyday practice.
safe by designHow we work
I start from the work, not the tool. We look at how your team actually produces research, advice and reports, test AI on that work, and keep only what makes it faster and better.
Where do your people spend hours on work AI could draft, check or summarise?
Which two or three use cases can we test on real work within weeks?
What training, guardrails and habits turn a pilot into how the team works?
Before you ask
No awkward question. Only useful ones.
No. Most early wins come from general-purpose AI tools your firm may already license, applied well to everyday finance work. Where a use case needs engineering, I will say so and help you scope it.
Carefully. We start from your firm's policies and approved tools, keep sensitive data out of anything unapproved, and design review steps so a person stays accountable for every output.
Banks, asset managers, hedge funds, family offices and corporate finance teams, from front-office research and sales to operations and reporting.
Yes. A 45-minute call to understand where your team is with AI and what you want from it. You will leave with a sensible next step either way.
