About
From enterprise scale to startup speed.
I am a technology evangelist and AI practitioner focused on transforming complex ideas into practical systems used by real teams. My approach combines architecture discipline with delivery speed.
I currently lead TVL Tech and teach AI topics for business and technical audiences, including Generative AI, prompt engineering, AI governance, and adoption strategy.

Speaking and Workshops
Clear technical sessions for teams that already build with AI.
Signature Topics
What I teach and speak about
- Prompt engineering with the CROTATFC framework: Context, Role, Objective, Tasks, Audience, Tone, Format, Constraints.
- Role-specific AI assistants in ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini, configured against real internal documents and processes.
- AI Design Sprint and the AI Opportunity Card: identifying, scoring, and piloting automation candidates.
- LLMs in production: architecture, evaluation, and failure modes for teams already shipping.
- Agentic and event-driven AI workflows with human oversight in critical paths.
- EU AI Act readiness: governance practices and audit-ready documentation by design.
Formats and Outcomes
Concrete workshop options for technical teams
- 90-minute keynote: production AI realities, the CROTATFC pattern, and a prioritization frame the room can use the same week.
- Half-day workshop: participants build a reusable prompt library and a role-specific AI assistant for one team function.
- Full-day lab: 3 sessions covering prompt engineering, custom AI assistants, and an AI Design Sprint that maps 3-5 automation candidates with the Score = (Volume x Minutes x Impact x Feasibility) / Risk formula.
Teams leave with a printable AI playbook, role-based assistants, a prioritized automation backlog, EU AI Act documentation, and individual TVL Academy certificates. First visible changes by day 3, with 30 days of post-training adoption support.
Technical Proof of Work
How real AI systems were designed, tested, and stabilized.
Case Study 01
AutoResearch style workflow AI in production
- Context: assistant workflows needed orchestration, traceability, and controlled execution.
- Problem: unreliable agent behavior under changing prompts and user variability.
- Architecture: event-driven workflow graph with explicit human checkpoints.
- Stack: FastAPI, Inngest, LangGraph, Gemini, Tavily, PostgreSQL, Redis.
- Improvement: better operational predictability and faster issue isolation in production.
Case Study 02
Conversational AI testing and regression discipline
- Context: chatbot behavior changed after model and prompt updates.
- Problem: silent quality regressions across intents and edge-case conversations.
- Architecture: repeatable scenario suites with baseline comparisons and drift checks.
- Stack: scripted test harnesses, evaluation scorecards, and human review loops.
- Improvement: higher release confidence and fewer production regressions.
Case Study 03
Data Spaces plus AI, trust and sovereignty
- Context: ecosystem projects required interoperable and compliant AI collaboration.
- Problem: balancing innovation speed with trust, governance, and policy alignment.
- Architecture: data-space aligned design with explicit governance controls.
- Stack: AI service layers, policy-aware integration patterns, secure data workflows.
- Improvement: practical adoption frameworks for multi-organization AI initiatives.
