Building the infrastructure for the orbital economy — from ISAM and space manufacturing to offworld logistics, energy, and autonomous operations. Strategy-led, industry-facing, future-focused.

I am a leading proponent of In-orbit Servicing, Assembly and Manufacturing (ISAM) — a domain I believe will define the next industrial era. With a background spanning robotics, advanced manufacturing, satellite systems, and national mission delivery, I focus on building the infrastructure that will power the off world economy: from autonomous drones and orbital logistics to scalable space manufacturing and servicing platforms. I’ve led national programmes in in-orbit demonstration, directed field trials for ExoMars, and steered UK efforts in advanced additive manufacturing at ESA — helping turn ambitious concepts into operational reality.

I bring senior leadership experience in the development and deployment of national and international capabilities, drawing on a career in the British Army and roles with organisations including ESA, UK Space Agency, DARPA, ASTM, and BSI. My approach is mission-driven, technically grounded, and strategically disruptive — built around connecting innovation to implementation at speed and scale.
