With 13 years in IT, including more than 8 years training at Google and speaking at large corporations across industries, I help C-level audiences and their teams confidently adopt AI and cloud technologies.

My sessions make complex technology practical and tangible, and they take resistance to change seriously. I explain platform-agnostic best practices, so what your teams learn applies whatever tools you use. I meet executive audiences where they are, then help embed AI into their teams.

Questions I can help you answer

Questions I can help you with

The five questions leaders ask me most.

I feel overwhelmed by AI. Where do I start?
Start small and concrete: learn basic prompting skills and a handful of key terms (model, agent, hallucination). Then we pick one repetitive task in your role and try AI on it, with examples from your industry.
Do I need an AI agent, or are prompts enough? How do I build one?
If a task follows the same steps every time, a good prompt or simple workflow is enough. An agent earns its place when it must plan, use several tools and decide on its own. I can help you build your first one: define the goal, connect data and tools, set guardrails, test with a human in the loop, then scale.
How do I govern AI agents and stay compliant with the EU AI Act?
Treat agents like new team members: a clear scope, limited access and a named person accountable. List your AI uses, classify their risk as the EU AI Act requires, log what agents do and train your people. I'll teach you governance best practices that protect you without slowing innovation.
My data is scattered everywhere. How do I break the silos and innovate?
It all starts with a data-driven innovation plan and seeing your data as an asset. Pick one business question, gather the sources it needs onto a shared platform, agree on owners and definitions, then let teams explore it with BI and AI. Each quick win makes the case for breaking the next silo, and I'll guide you through every step.
My teams are sceptical. How do I get them on board?
Resistance is normal: it usually comes from fear of the unknown. The human side of change is at the heart of every session I run. I share change management practices that work for IT, from involving people early to celebrating the first quick wins.
