Which of these is on your desk?
- Delivery
You're investing in technology and not seeing the outcomes, and engineering keeps missing its commitments. I closed exactly that gap by taking on-time delivery from 65 to 95 percent across a 300-person organization.
- Visibility and trust
You can't tell whether what your team and your vendors are telling you is true, which is why I give leadership one honest, written picture of where technology actually stands.
- Reliability
Systems keep going down and you're exposed if something breaks at the wrong moment. I took uptime from 75 to 98.5 percent at a 55-location operator and held it above 99 percent at a multi-billion-dollar insurer.
- Security and compliance
An auditor, a customer, or an investor is asking about your security posture and you're not ready to answer. I've led organizations through SOC 2 attestation three times over and run a NIST program at a multi-billion-dollar insurer.
- AI governance
AI is already in use across your company and no one owns how it's governed. I bring the production AI experience I built in a HIPAA environment and the governed systems I build now.
- Cost and value
Technology feels like a black box and you suspect you're overpaying for it. I cut infrastructure cost 20 percent while improving reliability, on a budget over 20 million dollars.
- Legacy and scale
Your systems are holding the business back and won't scale with where you're headed. I ran a full migration off legacy systems across a 55-location operator without disrupting operations.
- Leadership gap
You need a CTO or a CIO but you're not sure what kind or whether it's a full-time hire. That's exactly the fractional model: senior technology leadership, sized to your stage, a few days a week.
Why I can sit in either seat
Most fractional leaders are a CIO or a CTO, not both. A CIO runs the business technology. A CTO builds the product and the engineering organization. I do both, because I came up as an engineer and architect and then led technology as an executive. That means I can run your systems, security, and vendors, and I can build or rebuild a high-performing engineering team, work most technology executives have never done hands-on. I've done it across healthcare on both the payer and provider side, and in financial services, mortgage and banking, digital services, and software.

Services
Engagements are structured around specific deliverables or defined retainer scopes. Every engagement starts with a conversation to make sure the scope is right before any work begins.
The main way I work
Fractional CIO and CTO leadership
I step in as your part-time CIO or CTO and own the technology agenda, a few days a week. Whether you need the CIO seat, the CTO seat, or both, this is the offer everything else supports.

How engagements work
Fixed-fee project
A defined assessment with a specific written deliverable at the end. Scope, timeline, and fee are agreed upon before work begins. Appropriate for most assessment engagements.
Monthly retainer
Ongoing fractional CIO or CTO services at a defined time commitment per week. Scope is set at the start of the engagement and revisited as the relationship evolves.
Hourly or daily advisory
For companies that need a senior technology perspective on a specific decision or situation without committing to a larger engagement. Available by the hour or day.
