Fractional AI Officer · Remote-first
I embed part-time and take the AI side off your plate — finding where it pays off, building it in your cloud, documenting it so it outlasts me. Plain language, fixed fees, nothing locked to me.
You see the scope and the price before we start. No hourly billing, no surprise invoices. You approve the number before any work begins.
Everything runs in your own cloud, on your accounts and the AI provider you choose. When the work is done, it's yours.
No acronyms, no buzzwords. If I can't explain what we're building, and why, in words your team already uses, it isn't ready.
What I do
Eight services in three depths. A couple of starting points are priced below; every engagement is a fixed price, and I'll share the rest the moment you want the numbers. Start with the smallest step that answers your question, then go further only if it's worth it.
We take the one task eating your week and hand it to AI, end to end — set up inside the tools you already use, with a short guide so it keeps running after I leave. One reliable workflow beats a shelf of clever tools.
A paid, two-week look at where AI would pay off in your business — and where it wouldn't. You get a short written plan: the highest-value moves in priority order, with rough numbers behind each. Knowing what not to build is half the value.
A hands-on day that gets your team using AI on their real work, not toy examples. Everyone leaves with prompts built for your business and a month of follow-up while the new habits set.
A short, signable policy for how your team uses AI — what's allowed, what isn't, and how client data stays protected. One page people will read, not twenty they won't.
One assistant or workflow, built to run in production — in your cloud, with the steps written down, safeguards in place, and your team trained to run it without me. Most AI projects fail by stopping at the demo. This one doesn't.
A set of AI workflows for content, research, and campaigns, tuned to how your marketing team already works. More output at the same quality, on the tools you have — not another platform to learn.
Everything your business knows, turned into a private assistant that answers in plain language and shows its sources. Your team gets the answer with a citation, so they can trust it instead of guessing.
Some businesses don't need another project. They need someone senior who owns AI and stays accountable for it. I embed part-time and take on your roadmap, your builds, your team's skills, and the guardrails around all of it. Three tiers, sized to what you need.
Monthly strategy, standing office hours, and a quarterly review. I answer within a day.
Everything in Foundation, plus real build work each quarter, your AI policy owned and kept current, and vendor management.
A small embedded build team, faster turnaround, and a quarterly update written for your board or partners.
How it works
Thirty minutes. You tell me what's slow, expensive, or error-prone. I tell you where AI would help and where it wouldn't. If it wouldn't, I'll say so on the call.
We start with the audit: a written plan of the two or three highest-value moves, in priority order, with rough numbers behind each. You don't need a strategy deck — you need to know what to build first.
The work happens in your own cloud and accounts, in the open. You watch it come together and your team learns it as we go. Nothing is hidden from you.
When it's done, it's all yours — the system, the written steps, the accounts. Keep me on retainer for ongoing help, or run it yourself. Either works.
Who you'd be working with
I've built software my whole career, including engineering management at Meta. I'm the founder and principal engineer of CGCircuit, a learning platform I built end to end and still run today. Now I build AI agents and automations full-time.
That mix matters. I've seen the difference between an AI demo that impresses in a meeting and one that holds up in daily use — most projects die in that gap. I take a small number of clients at a time, remotely, so you work with me directly: the person who builds it, start to finish.

Let's talk
Tell me what's slow or expensive in your business. I'll reply personally, usually within a day. No charge and no pitch — and if AI isn't the answer, I'll tell you and point you somewhere better.
