About Me

Hi, I'm Brendon. I've spent the last two decades working in intelligence, across a range of target domains and technical disciplines.

My diverse career has included intelligence collection, operational deployments, analysis, reporting, training, and managing intelligence capabilities. I've worked across most of the traditional INTs, as well as in policing, cyber threat intelligence, security behavioural analytics, and insider threat. I've led multidisciplinary teams and shaped intelligence programs in both public and private sectors.

Over that time, I've built a broad and adaptive skillset. I specialise in understanding complex systems, designing information flows, and helping decision makers make sense of ambiguity. My strengths include deep analytical reasoning, stakeholder engagement, ethical decision-making, and the ability to turn data and context into actionable insight. I've also managed and developed training, designed new analytical approaches, and contributed to the development of custom tooling and workflows to support intelligence teams.

In recent years, my interests have broadened. I realised that the tools of intelligence analysis could be applied more widely: to governance, civic systems, and long-range planning. This led me to explore systems thinking, design principles, and the power of storytelling as ways to make sense of and influence the systems we inhabit.

My work now lives at the intersection of intelligence, ethics, AI, and systems design. I'm focused on building tools, frameworks, and narratives that help people navigate complexity with greater clarity and care.
