Bridging Naval Operations & Commercial Maritime Strategy & Intelligence
I've spent 18+ years across the Royal Navy, maritime insurance, and maritime intelligence/SaaS product leadership — from bridge watchkeeping and coalition naval operations to leading a Maritime Domain Awareness (MDA) intelligence platform's international expansion and running maritime risk and compliance product lines at S&P Global. I've sat on the operational, underwriting, and technology sides of the same problems, which is unusual — most people only see one of those angles.
A practical view from someone who's worked claims, compliance, product, and BD — not just one lens • Straight answers on maritime risk, MDA/tracking technology, or marine insurance questions • Perspective on where AI is actually changing (vs. hyping) maritime operations and defence-industry collaboration
