I spent 13 years at a farmed animal sanctuary.Now I teach nonprofits and mission-driven organisations around the world how to use AI.
Not the hype. The practical kind. Built from 200+ workshops and the real problems small teams actually face.
There are Easter eggs hidden in this site.

AI is the biggest opportunity nonprofits have ever had
Most organisations treat AI like a search engine. That is maybe 5% of what these tools can do.
The real value is in building systems that give your three-person team the reach of ten. Automations that turn three weeks of manual work into an afternoon. Agents that handle the admin so your people can focus on the work that actually matters.
I spent 15 years inside nonprofits. I built the digital infrastructure for one of Australia's most recognised sanctuaries from scratch, and when I left after 13 years, the systems kept running. That is the test. Now I work with organisations across four continents, from running AI workshops with Infoxchange in Australia to collaborating with OpenAI on their nonprofit training academy.
Most organisations do not have an AI problem. They have an imagination problem. They have not seen what is possible yet. Once they do, everything changes. The team that was drowning in admin starts building systems. The founder who was sceptical starts asking what else AI can do. The three-person team starts operating like ten.
That is what I help make happen. Not by handing over a tool and walking away. By making sure the capability stays long after I leave.
What I am building
Two products I run for the nonprofit sector, plus the custom builds I do for organisations that need something made for them.
Need something built for your organisation?
I design and build custom applications for nonprofits and mission-driven teams: donor tools, internal dashboards, AI agents, knowledge servers, and automations that connect the systems you already use. I build it, then teach your team how it works. No black boxes.
OpenAI Academy
An ongoing collaboration with OpenAI, creating practical AI training for their global nonprofit community. I designed and produced a collection of video walkthroughs, custom GPTs, and free resources for the launch of their nonprofit academy in mid-2025, and have continued building out new content since. The collection has accumulated over 25,000 views and counting.

Three ways I help
I work with nonprofits across three modes. Often all three at once.
Education
Free on-demand courses, templates and the Daily AI Briefing through AI Impact Hub. Organisation-specific training tailored to your team's context and skill level. Workshops, conference presentations, and speaking engagements that leave people with something they can use the next day.
Consulting
AI audits, implementation plans, tool selection, strategy, policy, and culture. Organisation-specific and hands-on. Ongoing coaching that builds your team's confidence to use these tools themselves.
Technical builds
Automations, AI agents, databases, websites. I build the systems, then teach your team how they work. No black boxes. No dependency on me.
The pattern I keep seeing is that organisations need this to come from multiple directions at once. Leadership needs to set the direction — an AI policy, paid tools, a strategy that takes this seriously. Staff need foundational skills, time to experiment, and permission to explore. Boards should be asking about AI in their strategic conversations. Funders should be encouraging the organisations they support to adopt it. And someone needs to be creating the conditions where people see what is possible for the first time. Neither top-down nor bottom-up alone is enough. It has to be both.
Curious whether AI fits your organisation?
Most of my best working relationships started with a single conversation. No pitch deck. No proposal. Just a 15-minute chat — an honest look at where your organisation is, where AI could help, and whether I am the right person to get you there. There is so much to figure out in this space, and I am happy to help guide the way. A conversation is always a good starting point, no obligations.
