Fractional CTO services for SMB and PE-backed companies that need stronger technology leadership without hiring a full-time CTO.
I help CEOs, founders, and investors stabilize technology execution, modernize platforms, improve data reliability, reduce technical risk, and build practical roadmaps for growth, diligence, or acquisition readiness.
Most growing businesses do not start with a “CTO problem.” They start with business problems that technology is making worse.
When that happens, technology stops being a back-office issue. It becomes an executive risk.
— WHO I HELP
I work with small and mid-sized businesses where technology is important to growth, operations, reporting, customer experience, or valuation — but where the company may not need or be ready for a full-time CTO.
— WHAT I DO
Three engagement models focused on on execution, risk, and business outcomes, designed to meet your company where it is — and get you where you need to be.
01 — Assessment
For companies that need the truth before making another expensive technology decision.
A focused assessment of your systems, vendors, roadmap, data, costs, delivery process, and risks.
Outcome: A clear executive summary, risk register, and 90-day action plan.
02 — 90-Day Engagement
For companies where technology execution has become too messy, slow, or risky to leave unmanaged.
Bring structure, accountability, and senior leadership to roadmap execution, vendor management, data reliability, and operational risk.
Outcome: A reset technology operating model and clearer execution cadence.
03 — Ongoing Retainer
For SMBs that need ongoing senior technology leadership without hiring a full-time CTO.
Ongoing support for strategy, roadmap ownership, vendor oversight, team guidance, architecture, governance, budgeting, and executive reporting.
Outcome: Technology leadership at the executive table.
— WHY THIS MATTERS
Technology dysfunction does not always look like a technology problem. It often appears as missed deadlines, frustrated customers, slow reporting, employee workarounds, vendor dependency, rising costs, security exposure, or reduced confidence from owners, investors, and buyers.
Business Impact:
The earlier leadership identifies the real issues, the cheaper and easier they are to fix.
— THE DIFFERENCE
I am a senior technology executive with more than 20 years of experience leading technology strategy, engineering organizations, platform modernization, data systems, cloud initiatives, vendor strategy, regulatory systems, and executive-level technology operations.
My background includes SaaS, financial services, data platforms, cloud modernization, security, governance, compliance, vendor management, engineering leadership, and business-facing technology execution.
I work with leadership teams that need someone who can translate between business goals and technical reality — and create a practical plan that teams can execute.
Before committing to a major project, new vendor, AI initiative, platform rebuild, or full-time technology hire, get a clear view of your current state.
If your systems, vendors, roadmap, data, costs, or AI plans are becoming harder to manage, the first step is a focused conversation.
