Enterprise AI leader driving real-time ML, generative and agentic systems to deliver measurable business value.
What I'm looking for
I am an enterprise AI executive with 20+ years designing and scaling applied intelligence platforms across complex, high-scale environments, integrating predictive modeling, computer vision, geospatial analytics, and generative agentic capabilities into production workflows.
I build AI operating models that balance experimentation velocity with governance discipline, deploy LLM-enabled systems and human-in-the-loop controls, and translate AI initiatives into measurable improvements in revenue enablement, operational velocity, service reliability, and cost optimization.
I advise executive leadership on AI investment strategy, model governance, responsible adoption, and risk management, and I have led multi-million-dollar modernization programs, founded an AI strategy consultancy, and serve as an adjunct professor to bridge academic theory with enterprise execution.
