Owner-operated companies·Busy professionals·Non-profits
AI advisory and custom software delivery for busy professionals who already know how to be successful and want to embrace AI, but don't know where to begin. I build the system, then hand the method to you. Growth feels calm.
Engagements start with a fixed-fee, read-only audit. You keep the findings either way.
What I do
The complete talent stack without the headcount.
Where AI genuinely fits your business — and where it doesn't. A written AI strategy, an operating framework, and a standing second opinion before decisions get locked.
Production systems designed from your real domain: requirements gathering, system architecture, and software design that outlives any single contributor.
AI put into daily use, not demos — agent teams, automation, and a release discipline where every change is tested before it ships, so the system stays safe while it grows.
Value-stream mapping, constraint identification, and opportunity solution trees — an expert read on where the effort goes and which fix pays first.
Systems and design thinking applied to how your team actually works — adoption gates, learning loops, and continuous improvement that sticks after I leave.
Measure before we touch. Every engagement starts with a read-only audit that puts numbers on the pain — so the fix is scoped from evidence, not a guess.
Behind each of these sits a career of enterprise practice: agile coaching, requirements gathering, automated testing and release, value-stream mapping, and retrospectives for continuous improvement. See how I work →
Why it works
I spent a career inside the old model: multi-person teams, long timelines, and enterprise price tags. I know what that talent stack costs because I led it.
Then AI changed the math. Strategy, architecture, engineering, and quality used to take a department. They are now available to businesses that already know how to be successful, through one person.
One point of contact. The whole stack.
A short call first, to work out whether there's something here worth measuring. If there isn't, I'll say so — that's a cheaper answer for both of us.

A 30-minute call. No deck. We work out whether an audit is the right first step, and if it isn't I'll say so.
