AI ORCHESTRATION CONSULTING
Stop experimenting with AI.
Start operating with it.
I help teams design and implement AI systems that actually run — not chatbots, not demos, but orchestrated workflows that replace manual operations and compound over time.

What I help with
I've spent the last two years building AI-powered tools that replace six-figure workflows — including Nerve, an AI operations layer that integrates 7+ tools with automated briefings, smart actions, and multi-step workflows. These sessions draw on everything I've shipped as an operator-turned-builder.
AI Orchestration Architecture
Design multi-agent systems where AI plans and deterministic executors take action. Orchestrator/skill/workflow patterns, tool selection, and reliability at scale.
ARCHITECTUREWorkflow Automation Strategy
Identify which operations to automate first for maximum leverage. Map existing processes to AI-powered workflows with clear ROI and measurable outcomes.
STRATEGYImplementation Consulting
Hands-on guidance through the build. LLM integration patterns, prompt engineering for production systems, OAuth/API plumbing, and the operational details that make or break AI products.
IMPLEMENTATIONAI Product & Go-to-Market
Pricing AI products, designing power-level gating, building trust with enterprise buyers, and positioning AI capabilities for teams that are skeptical or overwhelmed.
