About Us

Church Bay Consulting is an AI consultancy based in Whitegate, County Clare, focused entirely on the aviation industry. We help aviation companies apply modern AI and machine learning to real operational problems — improving safety, cutting inefficiency, and building tools that hold up under the demands of aerospace.

Alongside consulting, we build and provide our own tools, so aviation teams aren't just getting advice, but something they can actually put to work.

Daniel Burke | Founder & Principal Consultant

Daniel Burke has spent nine of the last ten years building Machine Learning and Data Science solutions for the aviation sector — work that sits at the intersection of hard physical constraints and messy real-world data.

He holds a BSc in Mathematics and Physics and an MSc in Artificial Intelligence, both from the University of Limerick, giving him a foundation that runs from theoretical modelling through to the physical systems those models are meant to serve.

Daniel is based in Clonrush, Whitegate, and sails regularly on Church Bay. He sees a real parallel between the discipline flight demands and the steadiness required on the water — and it's that same discipline he brings to Church Bay Consulting, helping aviation organisations get real safety, efficiency, and innovation gains out of AI, not just the promise of them.
