From Twitter Authority to AI Explorer: A New Chapter Begins
Former UK Twitter expert. Author. Speaker. Trainer. Consultant.

A Decade of Digital Influence: 2008–2018

During that time, I:
- Spoke at prestigious conferences and venues across the UK
- Completed 230+ radio and TV interviews
- Became a trusted voice for BBC, Sky News, and top journalists across the country
- Trained and advised hundreds of businesses on how to use Twitter effectively
- Authored a book
- Featured on countless podcasts as a Twitter expert
- Was frequently quoted in the media for my insights on all things Twitter-related

A New Journey: Exploring AI Without the Jargon
Now, I’m heading into uncharted territory: the world of Artificial Intelligence.
But let’s be clear—this isn’t your typical geeky AI blog.
No confusing graphs. No walls of code. No buzzwords or tech-speak that make you feel like you need a PhD in robotics.
Instead, I’m exploring AI through a real-world lens of a middle aged non techie, non geeky, non nerdy guy..
- What actually works?
- What’s practical?
- How can AI help everyday people in business, creativity, or just life in general?
I’ll be sharing:
- Hands-on insights from my own experiments
- Plain English explanations of AI tools like ChatGPT
- The occasional rant, reflection, and curiosity-fueled detour
- And yes, some laughs along the way
“What the hell is this ChatGPT thing—and why is it writing better emails than me?”
Whether you’re AI-curious, a bit sceptical, or just here to explore with me—you’re in the right place.
Beyond the Screen: My Passion for Travel
When I’m not down the rabbit hole of AI, I’m dreaming about my next adventure. Travel is a massive part of what I love—and what inspires me.
My ultimate bucket list includes:
- Going on a Safari in Africa
- Visiting more of the Seven Wonders of the World
- Exploring the Galápagos Islands
- And—wait for it—standing at the North Pole (Don’t ask me why, I’ve just always fancied it.)
So while I’m exploring the virtual future through AI, I’m also chasing real-world magic through travel.
