For fifteen years, I've worked across every level of technology, from hands-on technician to VP roles at Fortune 500 companies. I've built companies, led technical teams, and guided organizations through their most complex tech and security challenges across industries including finance, healthcare, accounting, software, and logistics.
But here's what I've learned: the best technology strategy isn't about the fanciest tools or perfect compliance frameworks. It's about understanding your business, your people, and what actually moves the needle.
Today, I work as a fractional vCTO and vCISO with mid-market firms that want to scale with AI, stay secure, and outpace their competitors. I bring business acumen, hands-on technical leadership, and a genuine network of world-class experts across industries.
I'm fluent in five languages, I've built communities and worked across Montreal, Toronto, New York, Dubai, and beyond. I show up where you need me: flexible, committed, and fully invested in your success.
Three Ways I Move Your Business Forward
AI Strategy & Implementation
I help you build and deploy AI that actually moves your business forward. Not theoretical frameworks, real decisions that let you compete and win in your market.
Security & Compliance by Design
I embed governance and security from day one so compliance becomes your advantage, not your bottleneck. You deploy faster, not slower.
Tech Leadership & Team Capability
Whether you need hands-on implementation, architectural guidance, executive training, or someone in the room when critical decisions are made.
One advisor. Clear accountability. Enterprise-level expertise without the full-time hire overhead.
Outcomes That Move the Needle
Helped clients significantly reduce operational spend by rationalizing their tech stack and implementing AI-driven automation, without sacrificing capability or security.
Implemented agentic AI and multi-agent orchestration with developer teams, enabling a ten-person team to produce the output of a hundred-person team while maintaining security and speed to production.
Built internal capability through executive and technical team training on digital transformation, security-first thinking, and privacy-by-design, so organizations move independently, confidently, and compliantly.
