    Microsoft AI MVP (Foundry) • Holland, Michigan

    What I build, and how we work together.

    I build the Microsoft data and AI stack for middle-market manufacturers and institutions, train teams to use it well, and speak about doing AI the human way. Every engagement is flat fee and senior-led. No decks that sit on a shelf, no surprise invoices.

    How I work

    Three ways to work with me

    Build

    I implement the Microsoft data and AI stack for teams tired of consultants who hand over decks instead of working software.

    • Power BI dashboards
    • Microsoft Fabric data platforms
    • Foundry agents and Foundry IQ
    • Edge AI
    • The Reverse Solution diagnostic

    Teach

    The Amplify-Extract Cohort, a twelve-week program that measures whether your team actually got sharper with AI. Built on the Cognitive Sorting Mechanism and Bloom levels 4 to 6.

    • Amplify-Extract Cohort
    • Team AI upskilling
    • Pre and post cognition testing
    • Student and educator programs

    Speak

    Keynotes on how AI can amplify people instead of replacing them. TEDx, Rotary, university, and conference stages.

    • Keynote presentations
    • Workshops and training
    • Panels
    • Virtual and in-person

    Start with a Reverse Solution

    Most engagements begin with a Reverse Solution, a four to six week, flat-fee diagnostic. I come in, find where your data and AI can actually move the needle, and hand you a build plan with a fixed price. No open-ended retainers, no hourly meter, no surprise invoices.

    What you get

    • A clear diagnostic of your data and AI readiness
    • A prioritized build plan
    • A fixed-price quote for the build itself
    • Senior-led the whole way, you work with me, not a junior

    Most engagements start in the low five figures.
