Co-founder and operator

About

My background spans economics, building communities, and serving as an ex–founding operator with two of the UK’s best. I left to build my own thing - driven by the ambition to create a category-defining product that delivers real social and economic impact. After spending months embedded in the AI ecosystem, it became clear how broken the fundraising process is. With Noggin, I’m aiming to make it fairer, faster, and more human.

Noggin - Investor connections through one simple conversation

Fundraising is one of the most economically inefficient processes out there - cold outreach, forms, and tools that miss the real story. It’s a deeply human process, but nothing captures nuance like a conversation. Noggin AI uses voice to understand founders’ goals and investors’ priorities, giving it richer context to match the right people and cut the inefficiency that’s held the industry back.
