Dynamic Equilibrium

Bridging science and strategy

Fractional R&D leadership for mission-driven, deep-tech startups at pre-seed and seed-stage. Working across sustainability, biotech and MedTech.

I help materials science and deep-tech teams think clearly under pressure.

I’ll get up to speed quickly, give honest advice, and take ownership of outcomes where it makes sense.

You're not buying document writing or lab hours; you're buying judgement, prioritisation, and the ability to bridge science, strategy and delivery.
