International Program Coordinator

At 19, I left home and moved to another country with no money, no safety net, and no plan - just the belief that I was meant for more.

Since then, I’ve walked through fire more than once: divorces, parenting alone, financial struggles, personal losses, and making bold moves of leaving a successful corporate career, to rebuild my life totally from scratch…

Each chapter of this journey was not easy and sometimes terrifying, yet it became important stepping stones of who I am today.

It is what allows me to do what I do best - 
help leaders and organizations evolve through change with clarity, courage, and connection.

⭐️ Who I Am

I help organizations bridge human intelligence and artificial intelligence through agentic voice technologies, leadership enablement, and transformation strategy.

My mission: make AI adoption feel human, effortless, and profitable.

I’m CEO of APEK.ai, leading teams that build secure Agentic AI & Voice Solutions for Enterprise - helping organizations modernize operations and humanize their communication through intelligent automation.

With over 20 years in enterprise transformation, leadership strategy, and reinvention, I blend AI innovation with human insight to help people and businesses grow from the inside out.


⁉️Who I Help

	•	Enterprises ready to evolve beyond legacy systems and embrace secure, human-centric AI.
	•	Executives and founders navigating reinvention, burnout, or uncertainty about their next chapter.
	•	Leaders in transition who look successful on paper but quietly ask, “What’s next for me?”

When People Come to Me (and my team)

They come when success feels heavy, change feels impossible, or they’ve outgrown the version of themselves they used to be.
They come when transformation stops being a concept - and becomes personal.

💡 My Belief

True reinvention happens when technology and humanity evolve together.

That’s why my mission is to help people and organizations:
	•	Adopt AI intelligently.
	•	Reinvent fearlessly.
	•	Lead with voice, not noise.

I help CEOs, senior execs, and elite founders become undeniable - without chasing attention.

SignalOS is a private operating system for those who’ve outgrown the noise.

It installs the infrastructure behind:

It’s signal-based transformation for high-agency operators done being replaceable.

I’ve spent 28 years leading billion-dollar global programs - what I built then has become the OS I now install privately.

There’s no community. No check-ins. No fluff.
Just the system that makes you undeniable.

Emissions Chemist

I work with CEOs, senior execs, and elite founders who have nothing to prove, yet everything to express.

You’ve built, led, delivered.
But beneath the surface: compression.
Brilliance with nowhere to land.

The systems around you reward noise.
You operate in clarity.
And you’re done contorting yourself to be seen.

That’s where SignalOS comes in.
It’s not coaching. It’s not support. It’s not accountability

It’s a sovereign operating system that aligns identity, execution, and income; without noise, performance, or permission.

I’m David Gregory.
I’ve spent 28 years leading billion-dollar product programs behind closed doors.

Now I work privately with elite operators to build:
   - Precision-led leadership
   - Leverage-based income
   - Signal-calibrated scale

Fast. Clean. Undeniable.

DM me the word *Signal* when you're ready to transmit.
