Skilled in .NET, SQL Server, data design, clinical systems and Microsoft 365/Azure migrations, he combines hands-on engineering with PRINCE2 project governance and training credentials. Based in Melbourne with a BA in Linguistics, he brings a rare mix of technical depth, product delivery and public-sector know‑how that enables practical, auditable systems for complex regulated environments.
