AI Strategy Built for the Real World
I help executives turn artificial intelligence, cloud platforms, and complex technology organizations into measurable business advantage.
My career has been spent building and transforming high-scale systems at Apple, AWS, PayPal, AppDynamics, Fannie Mae, and other consequential organizations. Today, I work at the intersection of AI strategy, enterprise architecture, operational resilience, and executive leadership.

From AI Ambition to Operational Reality
Most organizations do not have an AI-idea problem. They have an execution problem.
The difficult work is connecting AI to trustworthy data, scalable platforms, secure operating models, responsible governance, and measurable business outcomes. That requires more than experimentation. It requires leadership capable of aligning technology, people, economics, and risk.
I help organizations define that path and build the capabilities required to execute it.
Enterprise AI Strategy
Define where AI can create meaningful value, establish the required foundations, and build an adoption roadmap grounded in business reality.
Cloud and Platform Transformation
Modernize infrastructure, architecture, developer platforms, and operating models to increase speed, resilience, and financial efficiency.
Technology Leadership
Build high-performing organizations, stabilize underperforming environments, and lead complex transformations across engineering, SRE, architecture, and operations.
Leadership Measured in Outcomes
99.99% availability
Established reliable, scalable technology operations in high-growth environments.
Technology Has Always Been About People
I have spent more than twenty-five years leading technology through moments when the stakes were high and the path forward was not obvious.
I have designed foundational cloud systems, built global engineering organizations, modernized regulated enterprises, scaled early-stage companies, and helped teams operate reliably through enormous growth and change.
The technology has evolved from infrastructure and cloud to platforms, automation, and artificial intelligence, but the leadership challenge remains remarkably consistent: create clarity, build trust, and turn complexity into progress.
My work today focuses on helping leaders make AI practical, responsible, and valuable, not as a collection of disconnected experiments, but as a durable organizational capability.
The Chronicles
The Chronicles is an AI-powered platform that helps families preserve the stories, voices, photographs, and memories that define their lives.
I designed and built the product after losing my father during COVID and realizing that photographs preserve how someone looked, but not how their presence felt.
