🇬🇧 Navigated 4 UK Visas Under 25 · Global Talent Endorsed · Ex Grant Thornton & RSM ·
Data & AI Lead
In the last 3 years in the UK, I've personally held four visa types — 🎓 Student → 🎓 Graduate → 💼 Tier 2 Skilled Worker → 🌟 Global Talent — all before the age of 25. I know this system from the inside: the paperwork, the timelines, the anxiety, and what actually works.
I'm currently leading Data & AI at a UKRI Innovate UK–backed company alongside the University of Glasgow, endorsed for the Global Talent Visa as exceptional talent in Data Science & AI — placing me among fewer than 0.003% of UK tech immigrants. Before this, I worked as a consultant at Grant Thornton UK and RSM UK — two of the world's leading accounting and advisory firms — delivering senior-level AI automation while navigating the UK immigration system in real time.
🤝 I work with international students and professionals who want to:
🌟 Navigate the full UK visa journey: Student → Graduate → Tier 2 → Global Talent
🎯 Apply for the UK Global Talent Visa — UKRI endorsement strategy, evidence building, positioning
💼 Find Tier 2 sponsored roles in Data, AI, or tech — identifying sponsors, approaching applications
📊 Break into UK Data & AI jobs with no prior UK work experience
🔄 Transition from consulting, finance, or tech into a senior role in the UK
💬 Why talk to me?
I'm not an immigration lawyer. I'm someone who has been through every major UK visa route, worked inside Big 4 professional services firms, and reached a senior technology leadership role before 25 — all as an international. The projects I've been part of have targeted automation of thousands of hours of manual work and multi-million pound efficiency gains — built from scratch, on lean teams.
If you're trying to map your next move in the UK — whether that's visa strategy, job search, or career direction in Data & AI — I'll give you honest, recent, firsthand guidance.
No generic advice. No theory. Just what actually works.
