headline: Helping CEOs and Executive teams build 12-month AI value blueprints | First value in 6 weeks | Strategy plus build, one team | Partner @Elixirr

about:
Executives don’t struggle with AI because of the technology.

They struggle because they can’t yet see the future clearly enough to lead their organization into it or because their AI efforts aren’t producing the impact they expected.

That’s where I come in.
I partner with CEOs, executives, and transformation leaders to:

• See what others can’t — the real implications of AI for their business
• Articulate a compelling, actionable vision for the future
• Design AI operating models that actually work in the real world
• Build the prototypes, systems, and programs that bring that vision to life
• Accelerate the transformation so outcomes show up faster

My work combines deep technical understanding with intuitive clarity.
I make the complex simple, the ambiguous actionable, and the future feel both exciting and achievable.

I specialize in:

-Executive AI visioning + storytelling
-AI strategy and enterprise operating models
-AI transformation roadmaps
-Identifying high-value use cases tied directly to business outcomes
-Designing and deploying scalable LLM + RAG solutions
-Working inside high-stakes, ambiguous environments where clarity is missing

Across industries : banking, insurance, healthcare, retail, CPG, energy — I help leaders and their teams see the next era of their business and evolve into it.

If you're looking for an advisor who brings:

A clear point of view,
-The ability to translate vision into execution,
-A way of connecting dots others don’t see,
-And a collaborative “with you, not for you” approach…

Let’s talk.

This is the biggest transformation of our lifetime — and my mission is to help organizations move into it with confidence, clarity, and momentum.
