Dr Eva’s perspective on AI comes from building it. Her career spans mathematics, data science, AI architecture, production systems, enterprise transformation and institutional governance. She has worked in environments where AI is not a demonstration or innovation exercise, but part of systems in which reliability, security, accountability and operational control materially matter.
From mathematical foundations and data science to systems architecture and production AI that performs in complex operational contexts.
Turning AI from isolated experiments into sustainable, owned operating capability embedded inside real enterprise workflows.
Experience across government, banking, public-sector, public-safety and intelligence-related environments where failure carries material consequences.
Translating technical reality into consequential decisions for boards, governments, ministers and senior executive teams.
A senior operational career across global enterprise, institutional advisory and hands-on delivery.
Shaped production data science across audit, financial services, and risk engagements, establishing early enterprise standards.
Set technical AI strategy across one of the most operationally demanding regions in the world, guiding mission-critical enterprise implementations.
Built and led the regional practice, advising sovereign institutions, ministers, and C-suites on large-scale AI transformation and risk control.
Direct hands-on delivery of enterprise AI transformation, architecture, and organisational capability building. AI capability building since 2013.
International non-profit advancing global AI governance, sovereign readiness, and policy alignment with technical reality.
Harnessing media, data, and technology in service of the public interest and sustainable development goals worldwide.
Dr Eva does not advise from the sidelines. AI remains her operating work.
Through The Hummingbird Group, she remains directly involved in enterprise AI transformation, architecture, operating capability and hands-on implementation. The work focuses on making AI usable, sustainable and owned by the organisation — not creating dependency on large consulting teams.
Explore The Hummingbird Group →Three core principles distilled from more than a decade of building and scaling AI.
Technology is a tool. Start by defining what decision needs to improve, what evidence is required, and what changes when AI enters the process.
Explore Theme →AI, digital assets, satellite data, tokenisation and new financial infrastructure can accelerate action and capital. They cannot compensate for weak evidence or an indefensible underlying case.
Explore Theme →Models matter. So do ownership, data, incentives, operating capability, architecture, governance and the organisation’s ability to sustain what it deploys.
Explore Theme →From AI Ambition to Operational Success
Most organisations do not have an AI ambition problem. They have an operational success problem.
Decision Quality AI draws on more than a decade of building, scaling and operating AI across global enterprises, sovereign entities, and regulated industries to examine what it takes to move from promising models and pilots to AI systems organisations can actually operate, evidence and rely upon.
Dr Eva speaks to executive, government and technical audiences about what it actually takes to make AI work — technically, operationally and institutionally. She lands the questions boards, executives, and policy leaders most need answered.
