Enterprise AI Strategy & Adoption Leader·Author & Builder

Most AI starts as an experiment. I care about what it takes to make it part of how a company actually runs.

I've spent my career shipping enterprise products in financial services, where adoption has to be earned and compliance isn't optional. These days that means AI: finding where it genuinely helps, building the agents, and helping teams make it part of their everyday work.

The New Advantage

Raising Kids to Thrive in the Age of AI

Your child asked AI to help with homework last night. The AI didn't just help — it wrote the whole thing. Your child submitted it, got an A, and learned absolutely nothing.

This is not a future problem. This is Tuesday. Struggle is where capability is built, and AI is quietly removing it. This book introduces the Four Signals framework — CONNECT, CHALLENGE, CREATE, and CONTRIBUTE — grounded in developmental psychology and MIT research, with specific practices organized by age (3-18) that any parent can start tonight.

Enterprise AI & product leadership

For 16+ years I've built enterprise products from scratch, turned around inherited platforms and teams, and driven adoption in organizations where consensus matters and compliance is non-negotiable.

Today I lead enterprise AI from strategy through adoption: deciding where AI creates real value, building the agents and skills libraries that deliver it, and training teams to work with it every day.

Most AI efforts don't fail on technology. They fail on the organizational dynamics that decide whether adoption sticks, and that's the part I'm good at.

How I think about AI strategy

Start with the workflow, not the model.
The useful question is which decisions and handoffs get cheaper, not which model to buy.
Adoption is the strategy.
A tool nobody uses returns nothing, however good the demo looked.
In regulated industries, governance speeds things up.
Teams that design controls in early ship sooner than teams that bolt them on later.
