Experience

AI Ready in 180 Executive Training Program

I developed and launched AIReadyIn180, a two-session intensive program in which senior executives build three to five production AI workflows tailored to their specific business needs. I designed the curriculum, facilitation approach, and hands-on technical framework to ensure practical, actionable outcomes.

Participants achieve 30 – 40% productivity gains in core business processes within 30 days, with 95% implementing AI solutions immediately after training. The program features personalized learning paths, reusable workflow templates, and ongoing support frameworks to drive sustained adoption and impact.

Coca-Cola London 2012 Olympic Mobile Activation

I directed Coca-Cola's first global mobile activation for the London 2012 Olympics, coordinating a mobile strategy across more than 90 countries with a $14 million budget. I led cross-functional teams spanning brand marketing, IT, and agency partners to deliver the company's largest integrated campaign to date.

The activation won a Bronze Lion in the inaugural year of the mobile category. I also established mobile standards and partnership frameworks that were adopted across Coca-Cola's global marketing organization.

Aethova's BRIDGE: Execution Intelligence Platform

https://www.aethova.com
I designed and built an AI-powered strategic intelligence platform that transforms organizational assessments into board-ready deliverables at a fraction of the cost and timeline of the Big Four. As COO and CPO, I architected a multi-agent orchestration system comprising five specialized agents that worked as a coordinated relay team, handling methodology intake, client analysis, research synthesis, strategy generation, and document composition.

I created a three-layer intellectual property separation model, enabling multiple assessment frameworks to feed a unified intelligence layer. I also established quality governance, achieving a score of 8.17 out of 10, validated against $100,000 consulting benchmarks.

Leading an AI-native development approach using the Claude API, I demonstrated that senior product leadership can deliver complex AI systems without traditional engineering teams. The platform is now operational with pilot clients.
