AI Strategy & Enablement Consultancy
Making organizations AI-capable by making their people AI-capable.
AI strategy, governance, and enablement built so your team can run it without me.
The most powerful AI tool on the market is a $100K paperweight if your team isn't motivated to use it.
Buying the tool is usually the straightforward part. Deciding where it belongs, getting people to use it, and putting enough structure around it to scale safely takes more work. That's where I come in.
Client Impact
From an 8-month embedded AI leadership engagement.
Services
Every engagement is built so your team owns the capability when I leave.
I assess, I build, I train, I hand over the keys.
AI Tool & Spend Audit
Most companies accumulate AI tools faster than they evaluate them. You get a clear view of what you're paying for, who actually uses it, and what to keep, cut, consolidate, or build.
Find out what is worth keeping.
View details →AI Readiness & Governance Sprint
Assess how AI is used today, map where it can meaningfully improve real workflows, and put the governance structure in place before you scale. Ends with a NIST-aligned framework and a 90-day plan.
Decide what to pursue and put the structure around it.
View details →AI Enablement & Training
Your team already has access to AI. I meet people where they are and run live, role-based training built around the work they actually do, not a generic prompt-engineering deck.
Get the team using AI in the work they already do.
View details →Fractional Head of AI
Ongoing AI leadership for organizations that need it but aren't ready to hire a full-time CAIO. I set the roadmap, evaluate tools and vendors, establish governance, and build the internal ownership to keep it running.
Ongoing AI leadership without a full-time executive hire.
View details →Who I Work With
Large enough to need AI governance, too small to hire a CAIO.
Manufacturing & Automotive
Lean, quality-driven operations ready for Industry 4.0, without betting the plant on hype.
Life Sciences & Regulated Industries
High regulatory stakes and low tolerance for black boxes. AI with the audit trails to prove it.
Growth-Stage SMBs
$10M–$100M in revenue with shadow AI already spreading. Direction before it hardens into liability.

About
Scientist turned AI strategist.
I started in analytical chemistry: mass spectrometry, EPA compliance, precision instrumentation at national labs. That background taught me to question assumptions, treat data with rigor, and never trust a result I can't verify.
I carried that into program management at Toyota Group, where I led multi-year product launches across global teams. Then into AI leadership at Vivacity Tech, where I built governance from scratch, trained 300+ employees, and delivered measurable outcomes.
Now I help other organizations do the same, and I leave them stronger when I go than when I arrived.
I build what I recommend.
TCO calculators, Python forensics, governance frameworks you can actually run.
I work both sides of adoption.
Leadership needs enough structure to make good decisions. Employees need enough context and practice to actually change how they work. I work with both.
No dependency by design.
Your team gets the framework, documentation, training, and internal ownership needed to keep going after I leave. The engagement should leave you more capable of running this on your own.
Scientific rigor
I bring the same discipline from the lab to business problems: question the assumptions, trace the inputs, and verify the result.
