About

Title: Founder & Principal

I help leadership teams answer: what's your ROI per token?

I'm an AI program and product leader for the human-AI partnership: the work of transforming a business responsibly while human and agent teams learn to deliver together. I build and ship my own governed production fleets on multimodal platforms: Perplexity Computer and AirTable’s HyperAgent: a continually evolving 14 agents, 100+ skills, a published registry, tiered oversight, and kill-switch architecture. One fleet has returned 1000% ROI in a month.

A dual program/product Certified Scrum Professional (CSP-PO, CSP-SM) with an M.S. Software Engineering, my 30+ years of tech evolution informed my stances on Sprint-Governed AI, the ROI per token KPI, and token minimalism as disciplines.

Off the clock I write AGI allegories because the biggest questions AI raises aren't technical, and someone should be asking them in story form for read aloud fun with human and AI agent audiences alike.
