AI Architect and CTO helping enterprises deploy secure agentic AI profitably.

What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead AI transformation for CIO/executive teams—building secure, production-grade agentic AI and compliance-by-design systems that modernize DMS and deliver real profitability, with strong engineering ownership and speed.

I help automotive dealerships and regulated enterprises adopt secure, production-grade AI that drives measurable business results. As an AI Architect and CTO with 16+ years of experience, I focus on building enterprise-ready architectures that translate board-level objectives into an engineering and AI roadmap.

My work blends Enterprise Architecture and Cloud Architecture with Agentic AI, designing intelligent automation for Dealer Management Systems, Dynamics 365, Snowflake, and Salesforce. I also embed compliance-by-design from day one, with ISO 27001 and SOC 2 built into delivery, including AI-driven operational and governance approaches.

I’ve delivered outcomes like 35% improvement in profitability through AI-powered personalization, 40% reduction in configuration drift across D365 implementations, and faster ISO 27001 risk assessments via AI automation. I lead end-to-end digital transformation—aligning technology, operations, and business strategy—and I build high-performance engineering teams that ship with ownership and speed.
