AI Business Transformation Consultant
I help small businesses demystify and unlock the power of artificial intelligence through strategic consulting, custom development, and organizational change management. With a decade+ of product and portfolio management at Verizon — where I led $40M portfolios and delivered AI tooling projected to generate $8M in annual operational savings — plus 10+ years of change management coaching and implementation, I combine enterprise-proven expertise with AI-Native hands-on development innovation.
I + AI = we.
As an AI-powered small business we run on the same methods we sell. The JS Agentic Framework — OKRs, OODA, PDCA, the JS Agentic Harness, and Governance — is how we operate and how we help clients become AI-Native. Throughout 2025-2026 we’ve contributed over 1M lines of AI-augmented code to production projects, pioneered multi-agent coordination systems that operate 24/7/365, and launched the JS Agentic Harness, which lets small businesses deploy custom AI agents without coding. Our fully autonomous agentic team handles analysis, writing, publication, and maintenance of our daily AI news engine for less than $0.33/day — built entirely by AI agents.
We build AI-agnostic by design, because the harness you invest in should outlast any single model vendor. From strategic AI roadmaps to production-grade agentic teams, we guide organizations through every step of their AI journey, delivering measurable ROI without enterprise complexity or cost, while ensuring solutions truly serve human and business needs.

Proven Results
JS Agentic Framework Our operating method for human and AI delivery, evolved from the Agentic Project Management framework we began documenting in 2025. Five components work together: OKRs set direction, the OODA loop responds when something significant changes, the PDCA cycle codifies what worked back into the harness, the JS Agentic Harness executes, and Governance keeps accountability measurable at every decision gate. To control quality, cost, and speed, decision authority has to be intentional. Nearly every human task is agent-assisted and every agent task is intentionally guided, so what matters is who holds authority. People lead direction, response, and accountability, because those judgment calls carry real monetary consequences. Agents lead improvement and execution, because that work compounds with volume. It draws on tried and tested standards rather than inventing new ones — scaling and Agile practice, Lean, the Agentic AI Foundation open standards, systems engineering, and CI/CD discipline. The outcome is an organization that becomes AI-Native: staff upskill, new capability opens up, and technical work that used to be bought from vendors comes back in-house. In practice that means production-ready work delivered and human-validated the same day.
JS Agentic Harness A no-code solution that lets small businesses deploy custom AI agents in under 30 minutes. One client reduced their 6-hour monthly operations report to just 15 minutes — a 96% time savings. The harness works with the tools a business already uses, carries no dependency on any single vendor’s platform, requires no technical expertise, and operates for $10-$50/month in API costs. Teams save 10-15 hours per week per member on document tasks. We shipped it in 2025, before the industry settled on a word for this layer; by mid-2026 the field had converged on “harness,” and we renamed to match. Why harness quality decides cost and reliability.
Three-Tier Workforce Transformation Organizations today face a productivity divide between AI-Native employees who’ve mastered AI tools, AI-Curious employees stuck without breakthrough use cases, and AI-Resistant workers unconvinced of AI’s value. Our Three-Tier Workforce Framework helps organizations architect intentional AI adoption strategies that move entire teams toward AI proficiency. Companies modernizing with structured AI adoption see 2.5× higher revenue growth and 2.4× greater productivity, with 15-25% reductions in operational costs. We combine workforce architecture, change management, and agentic team deployment to deliver ROI from day one. AI-Resistant employees become AI-Curious, AI-Curious employees become AI-Natives, and AI-Natives become force multipliers who mentor the rest of the team.
Agentic Teams Architecture The future of work isn’t human-only or AI-only — it’s agentic teams working 24/7/365. We’ve pioneered production implementations where specialized AI agents (Content Strategist, Workflow Engineer, Static-Site Architect, Quality & Resilience) collaborate autonomously to deliver enterprise-grade results. These teams handle ideation, development, testing, deployment, debugging, and maintenance — achieving what traditionally required full development teams for a fraction of the cost. The shift is already underway, and we’re helping small businesses access these enterprise-grade advantages at breakthrough cost points.
Agentic Memory Bank System A proprietary coordination framework enabling multiple AI coding agents (Claude, Gemini, Cursor, etc.) to collaborate seamlessly on single codebases. Deployed across production client projects, it eliminates context loss and reduces coordination overhead by 60-70%, unlocking the full 25-40% productivity gains AI tools promise. See how we achieved 1M+ lines of AI-augmented code.
Automated News Engine Built by Agentic Teams A fully autonomous agentic team delivering daily AI insights for small businesses at <$0.33/day operational cost, saving $2,000/month in manual effort. Four specialized AI agents — Content Strategist, Workflow Engineer, Static-Site Architect, and Quality & Resilience — built, tested, deployed, debugged, and now maintain this production system autonomously.
Faith & Fearless Creative Platform A cloud-native GenAI platform serving neurodiverse writers with tools to write, narrate, illustrate, and publish their stories. This project demonstrates how AI can remove barriers to expression and democratize creative opportunities.
AI Adoption & Change Management Leveraging 10+ years of change management experience, we’ve coached organizations through the cultural transformation AI augmentation requires. Our approach combines stakeholder alignment, training programs, and adoption measurement frameworks that ensure AI investments deliver sustained value beyond initial implementation. As Deming argued, survival is optional — the businesses that thrive are the ones that adopt constancy of purpose and go about it with intention.
Background
Certified SAFe® (SPC, STE, RTE, SM) with extensive experience in Agile transformations and portfolio management. We’ve designed, implemented, and operated 150+ Agile teams, 30+ ARTs, and 2 Large Solution Trains, with a proven track record of reducing delivery times while building strong business relationships.
With 10+ years of change management coaching and implementation experience, we understand that successful AI augmentation requires more than technology — it demands cultural transformation, stakeholder alignment, and sustained adoption strategies. This expertise has proven critical in helping organizations overcome resistance and realize the full value of their AI investments.
Our Managing Intelligence approach recognizes that AI is a derivative of human intelligence, and the systematic methods for managing human intelligence transfer directly to managing AI agents: clear context, structured reinforcement, feedback loops, and documentation. If you can manage people, you can manage AI agents.
Throughout 2025-2026 we’ve led the charge into the agentic team era, pioneering production implementations where AI agents operate autonomously 24/7/365 to deliver enterprise-grade results at small business price points. With over 1M lines of AI-augmented code contributed to production projects, proprietary frameworks solving real multi-agent coordination challenges, and the JS Agentic Harness for no-code AI agent deployment, we bring proven, hands-on innovation to every client engagement.
Hobbies
Outside of work, I’m passionate about a few simple pleasures: spending time with family and friends, hitting the trails for a good run, capturing life’s moments through my lens, and indulging in the art of barbecue. I’m also excited about the future of sustainable transportation and love driving electric vehicles.
