TECHNICAL PROGRAM LEADER

The connective tissue between AI incubation and enterprise execution.

Most organizations do not have an AI problem. They have a delivery problem wearing an AI costume — promising pilots, no operating model, and no way to tell a board what any of it is worth. I build the layer in between: the roadmap, the governance, and the reporting that turn experiments into a program.

Currently taking consulting engagements, and open to full-time program leadership roles.

Selected work
