Applied AI governance and ontology analyst, translating complex technical systems into deterministic, audit-ready classification.

What I'm looking for

I’m looking to build and translate AI governance systems—ontology-driven, deterministic, and audit-traceable—working with stakeholders on regulatory classification, workflow design, and clear governance documentation in high-stakes technical domains.

My background is not a traditional policy-track one. It runs through communication, journalism, academic research, audience strategy, and more recent work in applied ontology and AI governance, with a focus on how we properly understand systems, their effects, and what responsible governance requires.

In my recent work, I’ve built ARCO (Assurance and Regulatory Classification Ontology): a pre-deployment AI classification architecture for determining whether systems satisfy conditions that trigger regulatory obligations. I use a BFO-grounded, CCO-informed EU AI Act Annex III condition-assessment pipeline with OWL-RL reasoning, SHACL constraint validation, and SPARQL audit checks to produce deterministic, audit-traceable outputs.

I also created an AI Governance Automation App to streamline CSV imports, weekly reporting, and governance memo production, and I support ontology credentialing and enterprise outreach through NCOR. I bring Research & Analysis, Writing & Translation, and AI/Governance workflow design together—turning structured technical analysis into stakeholder-ready documentation.

Ontology Credentialing Outreach

National Center for Ontological Research

Mar 2026 - Present (2 months)

Provided independent contractor support for ontology credentialing outreach, early enterprise discovery, and onboarding for NCOR evaluation and membership services. Helped surface ontology-structure issues, semantic interoperability needs, and evaluation questions while translating BFO and ontology governance concepts for non-specialist stakeholders.
