AI modernization for public-sector teams under real constraints
I help state, county, and city agencies turn accessibility mandates, legacy workflows, and institutional knowledge risks into secure, maintainable AI-enabled systems — with measurable outcomes, clear governance, and documented handoff. Currently embedded as the AI lead for Multnomah County, running 5 production initiatives that any procurement officer can verify.
Production AI initiatives
County files monitored nightly
Independent audit agreement
SME sessions captured
Where I Help
What I do for public-sector teams
Accessibility & WCAG Automation
PDF-to-HTML pipelines that clear backlogs before federal ADA Title II deadlines. axe-core validation, deterministic forms, human review queue.
Site Intelligence & CMS Auditing
Nightly Drupal-aware audit of files, pages, accessibility, SEO, links, PII, performance. Validated against independent external audits.
Legacy Modernization Support
Behavioral test capture from retiring SMEs. Acceptance contracts that make rebuilds safe. Knowledge corpora with full provenance.
AI QA & Testing Platforms
Multi-agent systems that index codebases, generate regression tests from captured knowledge, and guard against drift on every commit.
Secure Internal Knowledge Systems
RAG over agency data with role-based access. PHI guardrails. Agency-controlled cloud — zero data leaves the environment.
Executive Advisory & Training
Fractional AI leadership, governance frameworks, change management, executive workshops, and staff enablement programs.
When I'm The Right Call
Why agencies bring me in
Compliance deadline approaching
ADA Title II (April 2027), Section 508, state accessibility mandates, or records modernization deadlines you can't manually meet.
Staff capacity gap
Critical knowledge held by 1-3 SMEs nearing retirement, or AI workload that won't scale without specialist hires you can't get budgeted.
Failed AI pilot
Proof-of-concept worked but the system never made it to production. Procurement, governance, or technical handoff stalled the rollout.
Legacy system risk
Custom-built application running for 15-30+ years that nobody fully understands, and the rebuild estimates from vendors all start at $5M.
Manual process overload
Tagging, classifying, remediating, or reviewing tens of thousands of records by hand — at a pace that will never catch up.
Need for secure internal automation
AI workflows that can't be sent to a third-party SaaS because of data classification, PII, or jurisdiction constraints.
How I Work
Three engagement options
Most engagements start with Discovery — a short fixed-fee assessment that scopes the embedded engagement (or honestly tells you it isn't the right time). No surprises, no sales-cycle bloat.
Tier 01
Discovery
2–3 weeks · $8K–15K fixed
Tier 02
Embedded AI Program Lead
12–24 weeks min · $25K–40K/month retainer
Tier 03
Architecture & Build Sprint
4–10 weeks · $30K–80K fixed
