Fractional CTO & AI Advisor

Most CTOs speak operations. I speak code, marketing, and money.

Senior technology leadership, part-time — the rare CTO who speaks code, marketing, and money, plus seed & series fundraising support.

15+ yrs

As an engineer, CTO, and technology advisor across fintech, healthcare, and SaaS. I've set the direction and shipped the product — not advised from the sidelines.

You need senior technology leadership — not a full-time CTO's salary.

Your technology decisions are high-stakes, and right now you're either guessing or trusting a vendor who's selling you something. You need someone senior in your corner — but a full-time CTO is a commitment you're not ready to make.

There's also a translation problem. Your engineers speak one language, your marketing and sales another, and you just need clear answers and a direction. Most technology leaders can only talk to the engineers — leaving you to bridge the gap yourself. And AI is changing what's possible every month. "Wait and see" is quietly falling behind.

The rare part: I speak to all of it.

Most CTOs are operators and managers — a rare few still speak code, and almost none also speak marketing. I've spent my career across technology, AI, and digital marketing, so I'm as at home in a conversation about growth and revenue as I am in a code review. I can sit with you, translate what your tech team is saying, connect it to how the business actually makes money, and turn it into one clear direction.

Raising a round? I help you get funding-ready.

When it's time to raise seed or series funding, investors scrutinize your technology and your team as hard as your numbers. I help you build a technology story that holds up in the room — the roadmap, the architecture, the AI strategy — and I stand behind you through technical due diligence. I'm not a placement agent and I won't promise you a check; what I do is make your technology a strength in the raise instead of a question mark.

Common questions

What exactly is a fractional CTO?
Senior technology leadership on a part-time basis — strategy, direction, and oversight without the cost or commitment of a full-time executive hire.
How is this different from an IT consultant?
A consultant hands you a report. I take ownership of the direction and lead it — and I connect your technology to your growth and revenue, not just your systems.
Can you actually help us raise funding?
I help you get funding-ready: a technology story and roadmap that hold up with investors, and support through technical due diligence. I'm not a placement agent, but I make your tech a strength in the room.
Can you work with our existing dev team?
Yes. I lead, mentor, and align your team or vendors — I don't replace them.
What's the time commitment?
Flexible and fractional — as much or as little as you need, scaling with where the business is.
