A renewal is coming up, a pilot needs a verdict, or a new purchase is on the table. I help you see what the evidence supports, what to do next and who owns the business result.

When an outside view helps

You don't need to know the cause before we talk.

Work with me

Advisory

An independent view on your AI decisions, from one focused session to ongoing support. We look at the goal, the workflow, the technical assumptions and the evidence you need before the next commitment.

Executive AI training

Your leadership group learns enough about AI to question a proposal, judge an opportunity and decide with incomplete information. I build each program around the decisions that group faces.

Speaking

Talks on AI, business value and decisions under uncertainty, with enough technical depth to go past the headline.

A focused place to start

AI Value
Decision Session

Bring one AI decision. We examine the evidence, clarify your options and identify the next steps your team can take.

$750 USD

  • Questionnaire and preparation
  • 90 minutes online, up to 3 client participants
  • Written summary and recommendations within two business days

After payment, you’ll receive a preparation questionnaire and a link to schedule your 90-minute session. The session stands on its own. If we sign an agreement for ongoing advisory or interim work within 14 calendar days after it, the full $750 counts toward the first month.

Background

Experience with what happens after the purchase

As a Data and AI Architect at IBM, I worked with clients after they had bought the technology. My job was to connect it to the systems they already ran and to the business goals behind the purchase: architecture, the move from MVP to production, and the review of needs before a contract renewal.

My foundation is statistics, data engineering and machine learning. I have worked with AI since 2017.
