20+ years in regulated environments
Secure AI, data, and software platforms across federal and national-security programs — where auditability and human oversight are required, not optional.
Services
Some founders need to figure out what to build. Others already know what's broken and need someone to build it. Either way, this is where it starts.
Track record
Secure AI, data, and software platforms across federal and national-security programs — where auditability and human oversight are required, not optional.
Authored an enterprise AI roadmap and briefed Congress on AI strategy.
Took AI systems all the way to production — the same senior judgment, now sized for a founder’s budget.
How the work goes
Before tools or tech, we start with what you are trying to make easier, clearer, or possible.
Small enough to ship, clear enough to trust. The scope reads in plain language, the phases are concrete, and complexity stays out unless it earns its place.
Strategy, design, and the build move through one senior-led engagement — with trusted collaborators joining when scale calls for it.
The offers
Let's find your starting point, or see all four ways to work together.
Decide what to build and where AI fits — in 90 minutes.
A focused first step for founders sorting through an idea, a stuck workflow, or an AI use case. Share context up front, we talk it through, and you leave with a one-page AI Action Plan: what to build first, what to skip for now, the rough payback, and your next step — yours to keep.
If you don’t leave with a real next step, the session is on me.
Tell me what you needGet your time back with systems that quietly run the business.
Lead capture, content systems, internal tools, and backend automations — RAG over your docs, workflow agents with human review, built into how the business already runs.
Scope is locked at kickoff; if it grows, I tell you before any work starts.
Tell me what you needOne clear view when Shopify, Meta, Google, and TikTok disagree on revenue.
A custom UTM + attribution dashboard for direct-to-consumer Shopify brands between $2M and $10M in revenue. One place to see what each channel really pays back, so the spend decision stops stalling — fixed scope, fixed price, five business days.
Flat $3,500 on a fixed 5-day scope — price and timeline are set before we start.
See Dashboard StudioShip the MVP, site, or offer — strategy and build in one project.
Structure, messaging, and the build behind it — getting the thing off your list and in front of real customers.
Fixed scope, fixed timeline, written down before week one.
Tell me what you needKeep a senior AI partner on call — month to month.
For teams that want continuity after a project: monthly strategy, ROI-gating on new AI work, and a bounded amount of build and iteration — with human oversight, sized to how much you need.
Month to month — no long lock-in; scope and price are set before each month.

Who this is for
Most projects start with a friction point, a stuck idea, or a tool stack that stopped working the way it should. If any of these sound familiar, you're in the right place. I also work with teams in regulated, security-critical settings that need a senior partner rather than a generalist agency.
