How I work

Three ways to engage, depending on where you are.

Architecture Sparring Partner

Enterprise platform teams running AI integrations, governance overhauls, or architecture transitions. You need a senior technical voice in the room for design reviews, pattern authoring, and the cross-team coordination work that holds these initiatives together.

By the week or by the phase. I sit alongside your enterprise architecture or platform team, review designs, draft patterns, and keep workstreams aligned across security, infrastructure, and application teams.

AI Investment Triage

Professional services firms where AI is changing the business. Vendor pitches sound the same. Your team is skeptical of all of them. You need a verdict — which two or three investments are real, and which five to ignore.

Two-week fixed-fee engagement. Interviews, workflow mapping, and a written report with named systems, named owners, and a ranked list. No hourly billing.

Startup Diagnostic

Seed to Series B. You're growing fast and the things that used to work (the weekly sync, the shared doc, the founder making every call) stopped scaling. You're not sure what to replace them with.

Diagnostic conversation plus working session. We find the one or two alignment gaps costing you the most time, and design a fix you can run without me.
