Background
Where I spend my time.
Still writing code, still teaching, and still turning up to argue about it on stage.
AI educator
Teaching engineers to use AI well on real software, not demos — where design thinking, code quality, and a bit of discipline still decide the outcome.
How I teachTech coach
Working alongside teams on TDD, BDD, refactoring, and continuous delivery — improving how they build rather than handing over a report on it.
How coaching worksPublished author
Three books on TDD and AI-assisted coding, including Test-First Copilot, plus two published papers on agentic refactoring and AI-assisted delivery.
Books and papersConference speaker
I speak at international conferences on AI, technical agility, and software engineering.
