About

I run Happy People Ltd — a UK-registered company for AI-driven business automation and content production. We take the work that is difficult to operate today and make it run quietly tomorrow. Small builds, boring reliability, clients who stop thinking about their admin. Companies House 16779979.

I serve actively as a Superyacht Captain, working worldwide. Alongside command I coach and mentor crew — and increasingly, other captains — on how to apply AI and automation to daily operations. The teaching side is where the two halves of my work meet.
