How I Work

Strategic Projects
Fixed-scope deliverables: AI proof-of-concepts, platform architecture design, technical due diligence. Clear milestones, weekly updates, shipped in 4-8 weeks.
Advisory & Mentorship
Ongoing guidance for founders and leaders navigating AI implementation, digital transformation, or climate tech strategy. Monthly or quarterly cadence.
