نبذة عني

Aside from working at a Pizza shop for a few months, I've been fortunate enough to be an online entrepreneur my entire adult life and achieve – some time ago – my dream of working on projects that excite me, with people I love being around, from anywhere in the world.

My entrepreneurial journey kicked off during my gap year in Edinburgh as a way to prove to myself that I could translate my high school success or ‘book smarts’ into ‘real world’ smarts, which to me was being able to make money and not be painfully broke.

This decision launched me into the world of ecommerce where over 3 years I got the best business crash course a fledging entrepreneur could ask for, dropping out of my business degree along the way. While running my online stores I cut my teeth in the digital marketing space, an invaluable skillset that has been foundational to my “long term” success (I’m 23, only time will tell!).

As the ecommerce headwinds of 2020 battered my business, my mentor Josh Brown offered me a position to join his digital marketing agency JB Media, where I further developed my skillset.

In 2022, I was able to circle back to on an old passion of mine that had been left by the wayside in my pursuit of entrepreneurial success: coding.

Over the next 12 months I taught myself Python specializing in Machine Learning and wrapped up 2022 with my first exposure to language models such as BERT for sentiment analysis tasks. It was at this time I first tried ChatGPT and instantly knew that this was where my focus would be for the coming years.

To dive in head first, I launched my YouTube channel on January 3rd 2023, starting a new chapter in my entrepreneurial journey. My rapid growth led me to founding my own AI Development company Morningside AI, named after the suburb in New Zealand I grew up in.

Since then, I have continued to create content helping entrepreneurs wrap their heads around AI, reaching 116,000 subs as of writing (Nov 2023). This audience allowed me to launch the education arm of Morningside through our flagship product “AAA Accelerator” where we help entrepreneurs to start and scale their own AI Agencies.

What started off as a way to prove to myself that I had ‘real world’ smarts has blossomed into a drive to reach the pinnacle of entrepreneurship by building the world’s leading AI development firm and impact the lives of thousands by making AI education accessible to all.

I am incredibly grateful for this opportunity and am also incredibly excited for what is to come.
