Rarely one regime. The right combination clears the stalled deal, wins the federal work, and gets value from the AI you already paid for.

When AI governance, deployment, and adoption matter.

Most organizations don't think about it until one of these moments forces the issue.

Winning the Work
Your enterprise customer sent an AI vendor questionnaire and nobody can answer it
Your federal RFP requires AI governance artifacts that don't exist yet
Passing the Review
Your auditors flagged AI systems in scope and you have no documentation
Your cyber insurer is asking about AI controls at renewal
Answering the Board
Your M&A target uses AI with no governance structure and close is approaching
Your board asked about AI risk and nobody gave a credible answer
Realizing the Value
You deployed AI six months ago and adoption is flat
You have an AI policy and nothing that enforces it in practice

Whichever it is, it lands in one of three problems I solve.

What I do

Three problems I solve.

01

AI Governance, Risk & Compliance

Governance, risk, and compliance clears stalled deals, wins proposals, and passes audits. I run readiness assessments, 3PAO and audit prep, and the controls underneath — CMMC L2/L3, NIST SP 800-171, SOC 2, NIST AI RMF, and ISO 42001.

02

Enterprise AI Adoption

Governed AI only pays off if people actually use it, inside the guardrails. I build adoption that survives audit: training that bakes in the controls, champions who model governed use, and usage you can measure and defend.

03

AI Value Realization

What is the AI spend returning? I build an honest business case, adoption lag included, with board reporting you can act on.

Track record

What this looks like when the stakes are real.

ApproachBuilt the AI investment business case, facilitated SOC 2 and vendor risk assessments, and designed human-in-the-loop workflows with intake validation and compliance gates across ITSM and HR.

The engagement

The Expert Readiness Assessment

For when you're ready to unlock time, focus, and revenue.

A fixed-scope, two-week engagement. I validate your self-assessment against evidence, score your posture across the same ten domains as the free AI Readiness Assessment, and deliver the gap analysis and roadmap you can defend to auditors, customers, and your board.

You leave with
Executive briefing — the credible answer for when the board asks.
Validated maturity score — a posture stated on evidence, not intent.
Compliance gap analysis, mapped to the regimes in scope (CMMC / NIST 800-171, SOC 2, ISO 27001, ISO 42001, NIST AI RMF) — what the questionnaire, the audit, and the RFP would find, surfaced first.
Prioritized remediation roadmap — time and budget aimed at the right gaps first.
Implementation recommendations — the next step is action, not another assessment.

How engagement works

1.Free instruments. Score yourself above. No email, nothing leaves your browser.
2.Expert assessment. Two weeks to a validated posture and roadmap.
3.Remediation sprint. Fixed-scope closure of your priority gaps (CMMC / NIST 800-171, SOC 2, AI governance).
4.Ongoing advisory. Fractional governance leadership on retainer.

Start anywhere. Most start with the instruments.

Fixed scope. Fixed timeline. Fee confirmed in the first conversation.
