Workflow + Automation
Turn slow, repetitive or fragmented processes into working systems. Start with the handoffs, decisions and information people actually need, then decide what should be automated and what still requires judgment.
Professional Problem Solver
AI-Enabled Operational Excellence
AI matters when it changes what an organization can actually get done.
I work on expensive, ambiguous problems where knowing an answer is not enough. The work is connecting strategy, operations, technology, people and execution around an outcome worth pursuing.
The problems
Executive Bottlenecks
Find the constraint that is actually stopping progress. Separate competing explanations, identify the decision that matters and work with the team to remove the obstacle.
Rapid Builds
When the solution requires a tool, prototype or working system, build rather than merely recommend. Agree a bounded scope, acceptance criteria and responsibility for ongoing operation.
Special Situations
Work on problems between departments, outside normal job descriptions, or resistant to conventional approaches. Connect strategy, operations, technology and people around a useful next action.
How I work
- Show me the problem
Start with the outcome, not a predetermined solution.
- Find the real constraint
Separate the visible symptom from the bottleneck.
- Use the right leverage
AI, software, research, people, process redesign or domain expertise as appropriate.
- Build or fix
Produce something usable, not simply a recommendation deck.
- Hand back the outcome
Leave a working result, clear next action or decision, with responsibilities and limitations understood.
Who this is for
Founders + CEOs
Problems crossing departments or exceeding the bandwidth of the existing team.
Investors + Portfolio Companies
Operational improvement, AI adoption, special situations and value-creation work.
Professional Firms
Law firms, advisory firms and other expert businesses with unusual workflow or information problems.
Healthcare + Life Sciences
Operational, strategic and medico-legal problems where clinical context matters.
Judgment stays human
The right leverage may be AI, software, research, an existing specialist or a simpler process. I work with the people and tools the problem requires. This is not a claim that I write every line of software or that an autonomous system makes professional judgments. Scope, responsibilities and acceptance criteria are agreed before work begins; no particular outcome is guaranteed.
Work you can examine
Event Platform Design & Development, 2026 records an authorized example of a completed private awards-platform build and its limitations. The problem library describes possible approaches, not invented client results.
A distinct medico-legal path
For medical evidence, records or a medico-legal matter, start with Medico-Legal. For broader executive work, see Strategic Advisory and fractional leadership.
Ideas + Books
Research, books and talks explore AI, medicine, institutions, judgment and problem solving.
