headline: Canada Practice Lead - Intelligent Infrastructure Network & Edge | Cloud | AI-Driven Infrastructure | Strategy Consulting

about:
I lead Accenture's Intelligent Network & Edge practice in Canada — accountable for our P&L, our client relationships across every account in the practice, and a bench of ~30 senior infrastructure consultants who are seasoned specialists in SD-WAN, cloud infrastructure, security architecture, and voice — each with the depth to lead an advisory conversation with a CIO and the hands-on credibility to back it up in the architecture detail. The ability to do both, in the same engagement, with the same team, is rarer than most clients expect. It's one of the things that defines what we bring to the table.

After 18+ years in this field, the infrastructure challenges I see most often aren't purely technical. They're the ones that sit at the intersection of complexity and consequence — legacy network debt quietly eroding agility, cloud migrations stalling because the end-to-end architecture wasn't thought through, security postures that look solid until something goes wrong, or transformation programmes losing momentum because no one's translating the technical reality into decisions the business can act on. These are the problems where having a team that can advise and deliver — not just one or the other — makes the difference between a programme that lands and one that drags.

I've led programmes worth hundreds of millions of dollars across public sector, financial services, and enterprise — from SD-WAN transformations to large scale cloud migration bid, to keeping mission-critical operations running through COVID by moving fast on AWS. The technical answer is rarely the hard part. Building the confidence, the roadmap, and the alignment to actually execute it — that's where the real work is.

about:
As fractional COO & CIO at Fideseo, I help mid-market leaders eliminate technology debt, vendor sprawl, and AI/cyber risks—delivering operational excellence and measurable ROI without the overhead of a full-time C-suite hire.

With 30 years of hands-on operational and technology leadership (including VP, IT at Fanatics and VP, Online Technology at Redcats USA / Kering), I turn complex challenges into competitive advantages. Most recently at Fideseo, an engagement that reduced one client’s annual vendor spend by $3M while slashing cybersecurity exposure across 1,300 vendors. Another client saved more than $250K by consolidating fragmented security tools.

At Fideseo we created Resource Fidelity®—senior-only, fixed-fee, embedded executive leadership. I deliver the strategic advisory, AI governance, vendor risk management, and digital transformation that mid-market companies and private-equity portfolios need to move fast and stay secure. No junior teams. No six-month sales cycles. Just proven operators who hit the ground running.

I have consistently driven seven- and eight-figure results across eCommerce, retail, and growth-stage companies: $10M in new sales, $1.3M in licensing compliance savings, 45% budget reductions through open-source migrations, and 30–60% faster platform delivery.

headline: Partner, Consulting & Technology | Driving Enterprise, Digital & AI Transformation | P&L Leadership | Trusted Advisor to CxOs

about:
I help organisations turn technology ambition into business outcomes.

As a Partner with full P&L accountability, I lead consulting and technology businesses spanning multiple disciplines (utilities, retail, consumer goods, transport, life science, high tech) and geographies — building high-performing, scalable teams and translating enterprise strategy into measurable growth.

My focus sits at the intersection of business and technology: partnering with CTOs, CIOs and C-suite leaders to design and execute enterprise, digital and AI-led transformation strategies. I work with clients to accelerate revenue growth, elevate customer experience, and build sustainable operational excellence.

What this looks like in practice:
- Shaping long-term, board-level strategic engagements
- Building and scaling consulting and technology practices, with disciplined ownership of profitability, utilisation, quality, pipeline and forecasting
- Designing new go-to-market models, ecosystem partnerships and differentiated propositions that open new markets and capture share
- Acting as a trusted advisor and sounding board to CxOs navigating AI adoption, cloud modernisation and digital operating model change

I believe the biggest transformation risk today isn't technology — it's translation: connecting bold AI and digital ambition to pragmatic, value-driven execution. That's the gap I spend my time closing.

If AI transformation means redesigning who decides, some discipline has to come with it.
I re-read "Machines of Loving Grace" recently,  Dario Amodei's essay on AI's upside not for the predictions, but for the ground rules he sets for himself before making any. I found them so grounded, they're worth getting inspired by (or just stealing outright).

Last post I talked about intelligence Vs wisdom in AI. Here's where that shows up at the org level.

Most treat AI transformation as digital transformation, just faster. It
isn't, one changes the medium, the other changes who decides. Here's the

I haven't posted much here. There's been a lot of AI chatter to sit back and watch.

So I did what I usually do when the noise gets loud: I started asking myself harder questions instead of louder ones. What is this, actually. What isn't it. What can it do, and separately, what should it do.

No grand thesis here — just the thinking I've been doing, in the open, over the next few weeks. Intelligen
