Know someone I could help?

I build things around AI, product, and business execution. The common thread: helping people and companies get unstuck and making things actually work better, through managed AI that has a positive ROI, product leadership, marketing that converts, and getting new ventures off the ground. I bring decades of experience in systems thinking and building, leadership, grit and reality to every engagement.

Most of my work comes through referrals, and I'm grateful for every intro. If any of this fits someone you know, I'd love the introduction. I'm also available directly: fractional, consulting, contract, or full-time.

Who I Work With

If one of these sounds like someone you know, that's a perfect introduction.

  1. Runs or works in a small-to-mid-sized company already using AI
  2. Needs senior product, project, or operations leadership
  3. Owns a business that wants a better website, marketing, or higher conversion
  4. Is starting something and could use practical, end-to-end launch help
  5. Is an exec, or wants their team or leadership fluent and highly productive in AI
  6. Has AI in the building but isn't sure it's safe, sanctioned, or worth the spend, and wants a plan to fix it
  7. Is feeling stuck personally and could use a clear plan and coaching
1 Small-to-Mid Tech & Finance Co's

Getting More Value out of AI

The work I want most. Most small and mid-sized tech and finance teams already have AI in the building, doing some of the work. I come in and get it working better, with a positive ROI they can actually measure.

I run all my companies on a single stack of AI agents I built: 10x the work, nothing dropped, and it runs while I sleep.

2 Any Size Company

Product Leadership

A company that needs senior product leadership (fractional, contract, or full-time), especially where product, technology, operations, and AI overlap. That's been my world for 30 years: deep technical chops, four profitable startups and three consulting companies founded.

Acting Director at a $9B Fortune 500 firm: turned around a 10-person team and shipped major platform upgrades to thousands of users in three months.

3 Solo to Mid-Sized

Marketing and Fast Custom Websites

For solo to mid-sized businesses that want to actually convert: marketing and educational email sequences, plus custom websites built fast and maintained. The point is moving the conversion rate, not just looking nice.

Custom sites shipped fast, built to convert.

4 Founders & Startups

Launch a New Business

For founders standing up a brand-new venture. I help set up the whole operation: business planning, workflow and process, the website, and AI to accelerate it all, plus consulting on how best to do it.

I've taken ventures from blank page to launch, end to end.

5 Leaders, Managers, and Teams

Getting Leaders Up to Speed on AI

Courses, programs, and one-on-one work that get managers and executives fluent in AI: how it works, what to watch for, and how to use it, so their team drives the process instead of being run by it.

Ready-to-run fluency program: fundamentals to confident AI decision-making.

6 Companies Already Using AI

AI Audit and Roadmap

For a company that already has AI in the building but isn't sure it's safe, sanctioned, or actually paying off. I go in, find where it's exposed, wasted, or underused, then hand over a clear, prioritized plan to fix it.

I've analyzed issues and built plans my whole career.

7 For a Friend

A Practical Plan for Someone Who's Stuck

For a friend around 30 to 55 who feels stuck in life: a short, 1:1 session that ends with a practical 3-5 year plan, plus the follow-ups and tools to make it happen.

One client moved across the country with a major drop in stress, now proceeding happily along the plan.
