I’m Terry. You'll find me on the road, shackled to my laptop 🌎⛓️💻

It's a running joke that my girlfriend third-wheels my relationship with my computer.

What has cascaded into a chaotic cocktail of design, engineering, investing and marketing technology came from humble (dull?) beginnings as a mathematician and classical pianist.

The simple (and unoriginal) existence of math, piano contests and reverance for the traditional, corporate life drifted off-course during an off-grid and off-the-rails trip around Latin America to learn and teach free-climbing (much to a certain tiger mother's disappointment).

Squeeze someone into a bottle, indoctrinate them into the sharing economy, add a sprinkle of Muay Thai and Jiu Jitsu for some added spice, shake up, pour out the contents, and you inevitably get...

...a person who finds adventure in identifying and riding the treacherous waves of emerging technologies. Doing the exact opposite of being active outdoors. Makes total sense 🤷

Today, I’m the Founder and Managing Director of Aquila IOM. From Green Tech start-ups to Counter Terrorism task forces, we build on over half a decade's experience to help high impact teams with their toughest technology-based challenges, while incubating next-gen, AI-native businesses in-house.
