My free data science content beats those you'd pay for.

If you made it this far, you're probably here because you read the tech headlines every day and see AI news flooded everywhere. You then think to yourself, "am I missing the AI train?" 

You already have a lot on your plate, and these AI terms, tech and advancements aren't helping. 

You're told you need data to get ahead with AI, but nobody tells you what kind of data. 

You think about starting an AI team, but everyone's expensive, hiring is hard, and delivering value is even harder. 

You then think to purchase 1 of the 1000 off-the-shelf AI products, but which one? Evaluating them is hard. 

Everything AI seems like an uphill battle. 

I get it. 

I've helped countless business leaders navigate AI, while helping brainstorm use cases that bring companies hundreds of thousands of dollars in value. 

I've helped them understand what is and isn't possible with their data. I also have experience evaluating off-the-shelf AI tools to see if they're delivering what they promised. 

Let's have a video call and chat AI over a coffee. I'm buying.
