ABOUT

Practitioner first. Advisor by evidence.

I’ve spent 10+ years in the trenches of digital workplace delivery, from Citrix-era virtualisation through to cloud-native endpoint architecture and I write about what actually works, not what the vendor deck says.

CURRENT ROLE

Lead Architect – Modern Endpoints

Advania UK, Professional Services — I lead a team helping enterprise clients modernise their digital workplace: endpoint management, device security, identity, automation, and user experience across hybrid and cloud-first environments.

Before Advania, I worked as a Citrix specialist, which is where the cloud-migration instincts behind a lot of my writing and the ONYIA Framework actually come from: I’ve sat on both sides of the legacy-to-cloud transition.

WHY I WRITE

Cutting through vendor noise.

The Modern Endpoints Brief exists because most digital-workplace content is either a sales pitch or a certification cram sheet. I write from live client engagements – what actually works, what doesn’t, and why – for the IT architects and leaders doing this for real.

Building the public track record

Track record here means two things: what’s already published and provable, and what’s deliberately still in progress. Both are listed honestly — nothing below is aspirational dressed up as achieved.
