Talks and workshops
I run AI strategy and the agentic platform at a healthcare startup. That is the job. On the side I give talks and the occasional workshop about how it actually works, because saying it out loud to a room that argues back is how I find out what I believe.
Bounded, by design. I show up, do the thing well, and go home.
What I talk about
Agents past the engineering org
Running an agentic platform where the users are recruiters, pharmacists, and ops teams, and PHI is in the loop. What changes when the platform acts instead of waiting to be called.
Control is how you go faster
Hooks, permission boundaries, and evals that gate what ships. The guardrails that let you hand real work to an agent and walk away from the desk.
Build the system that builds the product
Encoding your own workflow into skills, subagents, hooks, and commands. The Claude Code plugin pattern, from one engineer's setup to a company standard.
Talk
Conference, meetup, internal tech talk, podcast. Thirty to forty-five minutes plus questions.
Per event
Workshop
A half day with your team, hands on keyboard, leaving with hooks and commands they can use Monday.
Half day, once
A good fit
- Engineers already using agents, no shared idea of how
- A team that wants to leave with something they can run Monday
- An audience that will argue back
Not a fit
- Someone to own your AI strategy for a year
- A vendor pick and a procurement doc signed
- An ongoing retainer of any shape
Email me the event, the audience, and the date.
I answer everything. If it’s not a fit I’ll say so and try to point you at someone better.
