About
Luke Henderson is a UK-based software developer and the founder and CEO of NeuroMoney LTD. His background combines technical delivery with formal business training, including an MSc in Data Science and Artificial Intelligence from Newcastle University and a BA (Hons) in Business Management from Northumbria University.
His professional experience spans IT support, software automation, data integration, web application development and cloud infrastructure across the health, data-management and software sectors. Earlier roles included work with PHL Group organisations, ClearData UK and Zynk Software, where he contributed to technical support, automated data workflows, API integrations and the transition of business software toward cloud-based delivery.
Luke began developing NeuroMoney as a bootstrapped project in April 2024, drawing on his lived experience of ADHD and autism and the difficulty of finding financial software designed around neurodivergent needs. NeuroMoney has since developed into a neurodivergent-first money and shopping management platform focused on reducing cognitive load through accessible, predictable and modular tools. As founder and CEO, Luke leads the company’s product direction, software development and wider business strategy.
