Hi, I'm John. 

As an AI agent engineer and executive coach, I’m a rare blend of logic and empathy. My experience spans financial technology, executive coaching, and AI architecture.

I’ve led business intelligence initiatives at Goldman Sachs, led a team that managed large-scale data systems at a Silicon Valley Fin-Tech company called Addepar, and I built and sold a production-grade AI platform acquired by Partnerable.AI in 2024.

Smart companies build AI.
Great ones build trust.
I help you build both.
