## About

Founder and Principal Consultant at PDC Drilling Solutions & Advisory, with more than 30 years of drilling experience across oil & gas and mining. My background includes PDC and roller cone drill bits, directional drilling, drilling operations, performance optimisation and field troubleshooting. I work with drilling teams, engineers, OEMs and technology companies to understand why drilling performance succeeds or fails, identify practical improvements and evaluate new technologies. I also advise oil & gas and drilling technology companies looking to enter or grow in mining markets, including product fit, market opportunity, competitor positioning, trial strategy, local support requirements and route-to-market planning. My focus is practical, independent advice based on real drilling experience rather than theory alone.
