Work

Leading AI enablement and business architecture at HSBC Global Insurance in Hong Kong. Current focus areas:

  • Rolling out the AI adoption strategy across 8 entities — moving from ideation to production-grade use cases
  • Designing agentic AI governance frameworks for enterprise deployment
  • Operating model work for underwriting workflows and bancassurance distribution

Building

  • Personal AI assistant — calendar and to-do management via n8n + Telegram + Notion. Working on adding voice interaction and persistent “memory” (RAG over personal documents with Qdrant)
  • Family Bot — WhatsApp/Telegram orchestrator for the household. Document retrieval, reminders, image handling
  • Homelab — Ubuntu server, Docker Compose stack (Plex, Radarr, Jackett, rclone, VPN). Keeping the infrastructure lean

Reading

  • Sapiens by Yuval Noah Harari (re-read)
  • Working through the Iain Banks Culture series backlog
  • Recently finished: David Goggins — found it motivating but slightly unhinged (in a good way)

Training

  • Preparing for Hyrox pairs with a 2-month structured programme
  • Trying to maintain consistency over intensity — the perennial struggle

Family

  • Planning a family trip to Australia (April — school holidays)
  • Kids: Robert growing fast, Olivia and the youngest keeping things chaotic and wonderful
  • Based in Discovery Bay, Hong Kong

Exploring

  • Corporate agentic AI — what does real governance look like when agents act autonomously?
  • Document intelligence architecture — embedding strategies for heterogeneous document types
  • Whether BJJ is the right next physical discipline
