I Make Teams Incredibly Productive With AI

I help CEOs and founders transform how their companies work with AI
through strategic advisory, whole-team upskilling and working AI systems.

"From where we were in February to where we are now, there's a complete difference. The majority of engineering is completely converted. We see a stark difference now."

Whole-Team Upskilling

Change how your company works with AI

From a two-hour executive briefing to full-day hands-on workshops for developers and business teams. Separate tracks for people who write code and people who do not. Every workshop uses your tech stack, your workflows, and your actual problems, so the new way of working starts the same week.

Executive AI briefings for boards and leadership
Agentic engineering for developer teams
AI knowledge work for business teams
Ongoing coaching to embed the habits

AI Readiness Assessment

Know where AI lands before you commit the budget

Engineering teams often run months ahead with AI while operational teams sit behind, picking up shadow tools and the occasional data leak in between. Before signing off a major upskilling programme or company-wide deployment, get an evidence-based picture of where AI produces real gains, role by role, so investment flows to the functions that return it first.

Just Get Started With AI

Working AI workflows built for your team

Most people in operational roles — finance, operations, marketing, HR, customer-facing teams — still use AI like an advanced Google search, one question at a time, copying answers into emails. The fastest way past that is working AI workflows installed in the work itself. I run a network of forward deployed engineers — senior AI engineers and consultants who embed with your team, build the workflows around your real work, and hand them over ready to use so your people get going from day one.

Delivered by a network of forward deployed engineers who embed with your team
Fixed-scope sprint, typically two workflows over three weeks
Built around real work in your tools, not generic demos
Live working demo and a business case memo per workflow
