20+ years in regulated environments
Secure AI, data, and software platforms across federal and national-security programs — built to be auditable, with human review in the loop at every decision point.
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 — built to be auditable, with human review in the loop at every decision point.
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 is easy to follow, the phases are concrete, and complexity stays out unless it belongs.
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 receive a tailored AI Action Plan: your highest-value opportunities ranked, what to build first, what to skip, what it’s worth to your business, and clear next steps.
If you don’t get a plan worth acting on, the session is on me.
Book the Clarity Session — $750Let's talkGet your time back with systems that run the business without you in the loop.
Lead capture, content systems, internal tools, and backend automations — document search, automated review queues, notification pipelines — built into how the business already runs.
Scope is locked at kickoff; if it grows, I tell you before any work starts.
Let's talkShip 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.
Let's talkKeep a senior AI partner on call — month to month.
For teams that want continuity after a project: monthly strategy, a clear filter on which AI work is worth the investment, and a set amount of build and iteration each month — sized to what 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.

Have an AI workflow, reporting gap, or system you can't seem to get off the ground? Scope it with me. You'll get a real read on what to build first and what it should cost.
I review every submission and reply with a real read on fit.
