Twenty years designing data systems for organizations that can't afford downtime. Four years building production AI applications. I bridge the gap between enterprise reliability and startup velocity.

About
I started in data architecture two decades ago — designing warehouses, building pipelines, and eventually leading technology as CTO. I learned what enterprises actually need: systems that don't break at 3am, decisions backed by clean data, and architecture that scales past the demo.
Four years ago I pivoted into full-stack and AI development, capped by an intensive 16-week immersion in modern AI engineering. Now I build the kind of AI products that ship to production — not just notebooks that look good in a deck.
The combination is rare. Most AI developers haven't operated at enterprise scale. Most senior architects haven't shipped a transformer to production. I do both.
Services
Fixed fees. Defined deliverables. No discovery-call labyrinth.
A senior look at your data stack: warehouse, pipelines, governance, cost. You get a written assessment, a prioritized roadmap, and a decision-ready summary for leadership.
I add production AI capabilities to systems you already run — RAG over your docs, agents that move data, LLM-powered workflows. Built to enterprise standards, not demo standards.
Zero to production for AI-native products. Next.js front-end, FastAPI / Node back-end, the right model for the job, deployed and monitored. Built by one senior person, not a junior team.
Selected work
Real problems, real numbers. Client names withheld where required by agreement.
A mid-market firm was running monthly reporting off 14 disconnected SaaS tools. Reports took 3 days to produce and routinely contradicted each other. Leadership had no single source of truth for revenue.
Consultants spent hours per week searching internal knowledge — past deliverables, methodologies, client decks. Most never found what they needed and rebuilt assets from scratch.
Data quality alerts were drowning the analytics team. They received 200+ alerts a week and triaged maybe 20 of them. Real issues were going undetected.
How I work
We start with a working session — your problem, your constraints, your team. I ask harder questions than most consultants do, because guessing wrong is expensive.
I produce a written assessment: what's working, what isn't, and what the tradeoffs look like. You see my reasoning, not just my conclusion.
I build in short, visible increments. You see progress every week, not just at the end. Scope changes are negotiated openly, not absorbed silently.
Real documentation. A walkthrough with your team. A list of what I'd do next if it were mine. I want your team to own this after I leave.
Trusted across industries
"He saw three architectural problems we hadn't named yet. By the end of the engagement we'd shipped fixes for all of them."
"The rare consultant who can sit with a CTO in the morning and pair-program with a junior dev in the afternoon. Both walked away smarter."
"Most AI consultants give you a demo. He gave us a system that's still running, still being used, and still saving the team hours every week."
