Crunchbase lists his location as the United States. His LinkedIn profile and the Kalytix Ventures LinkedIn page list London.
He started his career in Silicon Valley. There he created an early-stage venture firm focused on high-impact applications of AI, and Kalytix Partners, a strategy consultancy for institutional investors that was later acquired. He then became Head of Business Development at Real Capital Innovation, an investment technology platform backed by 8VC and Soros Fund Management that was acquired by Addepar. After that he joined Social Impact Capital, a New York-based impact VC firm, as Partner. NFX Signal and LinkedIn now list him as Venture Partner there.
He holds an MPhil from Cambridge Judge Business School and a BA from Queen Mary University of London. He has led impact finance research with Oxford and Stanford, and co-authored Impact investments: a call for (re)orientation (2021). He is also an Unreasonable mentor, a non-executive investment committee member at Conduit Connect, and an advisor to funds including Extantia, Andon Okapi and Brace VC.
Crunchbase describes him as an active angel investor in more than 30 global impact startups. An earlier 2022 podcast bio said over 20, so the count has grown. A profile on The Org describes his investing and advising across 30+ startups, mainly in health, climate and fintech.

LinkedIn posts from his profile describe StrongRoom AI's StrongCare product, which supports medication management in aged care. No other AI-specific angel investments with dates are public.
Kalytix Ventures says it invests at the earliest stages in technology companies for resiliency, adaptation and survival.
