Build AI capability inside your company — without losing control of it.
I advise executive teams on AI strategy, governance, and workflow automation, and I own the results. Whether the right answer is private AI, enterprise tools, or both, you get one accountable owner — me — and a proven delivery bench when it's time to build.

AI is already inside your company. The question is whether anyone is leading it.
- Employees are pasting company information into public AI tools today — with no policy on what's allowed.
- Copilot or ChatGPT pilots launched with enthusiasm and produced no measurable ROI.
- The knowledge your team searches for daily is scattered across drives, email, and systems nobody connected.
- Everyone agrees "we should be doing something with AI." Nobody owns what, in which order, or how safely.
What I own
AI roadmap & executive alignment
A scored, sequenced plan the leadership team actually agrees on — not a list of pilots.
Governance & acceptable-use policy
Data tiers, approved tools, and one page of rules people can actually follow.
Data & AI architecture
Private, commercial, or hybrid — decided by your data sensitivity and budget, not a vendor's pitch.
Workflow automation prioritization
The opportunity backlog: every candidate workflow scored by ROI and feasibility.
Implementation oversight
Whoever builds — my delivery partners or your team — I stay accountable for the outcome.
Leadership & team enablement
Training that changes how work gets done, with champions and measured adoption.
"Functionally, I serve as a fractional AI executive for companies not ready to hire a full-time Chief AI Officer."
There's no single right way to adopt AI. There is a right way to decide.
"We can't put our data in public tools."
Private AI architecture: local models, a governed knowledge layer, your data never leaves. I'll also tell you when this is overkill.
"We bought Copilot/ChatGPT and nothing happened."
Commercial AI enablement: governance, integration with your systems, and workflows that actually get adopted.
"We don't know where to start."
The AI Executive Assessment: two weeks to a scored roadmap and a defensible decision.
Results from real delivery work
RFP response time — construction services
Technical document search — medical devices
Legal research time — law firm
Sensitive-data exposure in AI tools — ad-tech
Delivered with Last Rev, the platform engineering firm I co-founded.
How we'd work together
AI Executive Assessment
Two weeks to a scored roadmap and a defensible decision — including "wait," if that's the honest answer.
$5,000–$7,500 · credited toward advisoryExecutive AI Advisory
I own your AI operating model — strategy, governance, prioritization — and show my work every month.
From $15,000/monthImplementation
Built by Last Rev, my consultant network, or your own team. I stay accountable either way.
Scoped separatelyI take a maximum of four advisory clients.
That cap is real — I also run an AI product company and co-lead a services firm. It's also why the work is good. If you want an executive who owns your AI outcomes rather than a vendor who bills for activity, let's talk.
