For over a decade I worked in enterprise IT operations and infrastructure — architecture, automation, large-scale systems integration for organizations that couldn't afford to get it wrong. When foundation models became genuinely capable, the more interesting design problems moved elsewhere, and that's where my focus has been since.

That question is what my advisory work is built around: whether a product is designed around the model from day one, or whether AI gets layered onto infrastructure that was never built to support it. Closing that gap is the work. I'm opening capacity now to take this on directly with CTOs and technical founders navigating that decision.

I build on the same architecture I advocate for. Budge (budge.me) is a live AI travel-planning assistant, in early access — I ship updates to it myself. RADP, in development, is an AI-native alternative to the rigid, expensive enterprise workflow platforms I spent over a decade implementing for large organizations — this time built for the companies priced out of them.
