How it works

A simple, transparent process designed to deliver results

1

Initial consultation

We discuss your needs, challenges, and goals. This helps me understand your context and propose the right approach.

2

Proposal and scope

I provide a clear proposal outlining the work, timeline, and investment. For productized services, pricing is transparent upfront.

3

Engagement

We begin the work with regular check-ins and clear deliverables. For retainer relationships, we establish a sustainable rhythm.

What to expect

Direct communication

No fluff, no jargon. Clear explanations and actionable recommendations.

Systems thinking

I look at the whole picture, not just isolated problems.

Practical solutions

Recommendations grounded in real engineering experience, not theory.

Respect for your team

I work with your people, not around them.
