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. Needs to find where a workflow is eating time before committing to a fix
  7. Is feeling stuck personally and could use a clear plan and coaching
1 Small-to-Mid Sized Companies

Getting More Value out of AI

The work I want most. Most small and mid-sized companies already have AI in the building, doing some of the work. I find where it pays off, build it, and prove the return.

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

2 Any Size Company

Product Leadership

A company that needs senior product leadership (Fractional CPO, 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 Teams with a workflow to improve

Workflow Opportunity Analysis

For a company that wants to know where the time goes before committing to a fix. I find the constraint, map one or two workflows, and rank the opportunities by projected recoverable hours. Three weeks, $7,500. The work stops at the analysis and plan.

You get a Workflow Opportunity Index and projected recoverable hours.

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.
