Data + AI

When clarity matters.

Product, data, and technical leadership for moments that require direction.

I help teams define and incubate new products, improve operational efficiency through data, automation, and applied AI, and step in when organizations need steady technical direction.

Why insight206
  • Bringing structure to early or ambiguous product initiatives.
  • Designing data, automation, and AI systems that actually get used.
  • Acting as a steady technical lead during transition or growth.

If this sounds familiar

Most teams I work with are dealing with one of these situations.

You need steady technical leadership

You’re hiring, reorganizing, or navigating change — and need steady technical direction.

  • Fractional or interim technical leadership
  • Alignment across teams

Operations are slow or manual

Work is getting done, but too much of it is repetitive, fragile, or invisible.

  • Data, automation, and applied AI
  • Systems that support decisions

A new product, unclear direction

You have momentum or pressure — but not yet a plan teams can confidently execute.

  • Product discovery and scope shaping
  • Practical technical direction

If none of these resonate, you probably don’t need me — and that’s okay.

How I show up

I adapt to the team, the moment, and the level of clarity — shifting between strategy and execution as needed.

Embedded or independent

I can work alongside your team or independently, depending on what will create the most momentum. Sometimes that means guiding decisions; other times it means owning delivery.

  • Flexible engagement: paired or autonomous
  • Momentum-focused ownership

Exploring before committing

I use low-code tools, data models, AI, and lightweight visualizations to make ideas tangible early — so teams can react, learn, and converge on the right scope before locking into execution.

  • Early artifacts that invite feedback
  • Decisions informed by real signals

Advisor and executor

I’m comfortable operating as a strategic advisor or rolling up my sleeves to execute. The goal isn’t process — it’s helping teams move forward with confidence.

  • Perspective on choices and tradeoffs
  • Hands-on support when it’s needed

The results

Practical progress you can see quickly — and systems that hold up after I’m gone.

Clear direction

Decisions are made deliberately, scoped clearly, and sequenced so teams know what matters now and what comes later. The result is forward motion without churn.

Systems people use

Prototypes turn into tools people actually adopt—backed by clean data models, automation, and applied AI. When it’s time, the patterns are ready to scale.

Momentum that lasts

Teams leave with a cadence they can sustain: visible progress, clear ownership, and handoffs that don’t collapse after launch.

Best fit when

This work tends to be most effective when teams are open to clarity, iteration, and shared ownership.

Teams facing unclear paths, competing options, or incomplete information

Not greenfield brainstorming, but meaningful decisions where tradeoffs matter and momentum counts.

Leaders who value judgment, not just output

You’re not just looking for execution. You want help framing decisions, testing assumptions early, and reducing risk before it compounds.

Organizations open to early artifacts

You’re comfortable reacting to prototypes, models, and early signals — using them to shape direction before plans harden.

Teams that want to build capability, not dependency

The goal isn’t long-term reliance. It’s leaving the team clearer, more capable, and better positioned to move forward independently.

If you’re looking for a plug-and-play delivery team, this probably isn’t the right fit. If you’re looking for clarity and momentum that lasts, it often is.

NEXT STEP

Looking for clarity on what’s next?

Send a note with what you’re working on, where you’re weighing tradeoffs, and what kind of clarity you’re looking for. If it’s a fit, we’ll decide what makes sense next.

No sales layer. No handoffs. Just a direct conversation.
