Hi 👋, I’m Tim—a Belfast-based IT Consultant with a PhD in Computer Vision and a lifelong passion for emerging technology. These days, I work in architecture, where I thrive on solving real-world business problems and shaping the big picture. But at heart, I’m still an engineer: hands-on, curious, and always building something new.

☀️ By Day

  • Solution & Enterprise Architecture
    Designing secure, scalable systems—often at the edge of legacy and modern stack integration. I pride myself on my ability to truly understand the architectural culture and motivations of my clients.

  • Cloud, DevOps & DevSecOps Strategy
    My primary purpose is to help organisations align tech goals with business objectives, and building security into their pipelines and workflows from day one.

  • Security-First Design
    Backed by CISSP and CCSP certifications, I understand the importance of process and discipline when it comes to technology solutions and governance.

  • AI Engineering
    I build practical, secure AI systems that bridge the gap between DevOps, cloud, and real-world business needs.

🌖 By Night

  • Investing & Capital Markets
    I enjoy trying out on all things investment, stocks and shares, ISAs, ETFs and so on - I have been known to say “buy the dip and HODL” as if I know what I’m doing on occasion (I don’t).

  • Crypto Trading
    Unlike traditional capital markets, the crypto markets are far more accessible to the average finance nerd like myself, and there also open 24/7… 😏

  • Technology Research
    I’m fascinated by how technologies like agentic AI are reshaping software, security, and business—and I’m always experimenting, learning, and sharing what I find.

  • 3D Printing
    Thats right, I really did print a printer… Twice. Also useful for random brackets and toys for the kids(/me).
