One practice. Three ways to work together. The core is always the same — audits, fractional or interim leadership, hiring support, growth engagement, KPI review, and due diligence. What changes is who it's for.
Startup & Tech Growth
Seed to Series B companies that need senior technical leadership but aren’t ready for a full-time CTO.
Small Business
Local and small businesses that need the tech, analytics, AI, and growth systems that actually move revenue.
Enterprise
Large organizations that need an independent, accountable outside voice for audits, architecture, and strategic decisions.
How I Work
- Billed by the hour ($250/hour baseline) or by scoped project — not sold as a fixed full-time seat
- One accountable senior owner on every engagement, not a diffused team of associates
- Every engagement starts with a conversation, not a pitch
- Deliverables you keep — reports, plans, and code are yours either way
Selected Work
- Hertz — Digital Transformation & PerformanceDrove a complete digital transformation of the global rate engine, then engineered a 6,000% throughput improvement — >3,000 reads/sec and >2,500 writes/sec, p95 latency under 30ms.
- Pantheon — AI Orchestration PlatformAgentic AI orchestration platform, built to run my own fractional CTO delivery work at scale — being open-sourced piece by piece as each component proves itself.
- Chick-fil-A — Offline OrderingOffline-first ordering system using Ditto and event queues for device-to-device sync — festivals, food trucks, and carts, migrating off legacy Aloha POS.
