AI was the unsanctioned helper every company quietly encouraged. Now finance found the invoice. What the tokenmaxxing reckoning says about the bigger bet.
I help mid-market and enterprise teams adopt AI with discipline and modernize aging web platforms — without runaway cost or risk. 20+ years in web platform engineering, writing honestly about what actually works.

Expertise
Business case before tooling. Governance before rollout. Team enablement before headcount promises. I help organizations adopt AI in a sequence that holds up — and measure the productivity gains instead of asserting them.
Read the case study →Aging web estates carry quiet costs — licenses, vendors, infrastructure, drag. I migrate legacy platforms to modern, lower-cost architectures without disrupting operations, and make the savings show up in the budget.
Read the case study →High-traffic platforms have to be fast and defensible. Edge architecture, WAF and DNS hardening, search and caching performance — engineering that shows up in page speed, uptime, and risk posture.
