I turn fragmented enterprises into one working system

01

Fragmented systems quietly kill companies.
I make them one.

Most enterprises don't fail from a lack of effort — they fail because their systems never learned to talk to each other. I'm the person companies bring in when the spreadsheets have taken over, when three tools do the same job badly, and when nobody trusts the numbers anymore. My job is to architect the one system that replaces all of that — without slowing the business down while it happens.

Sixteen years. Private equity, healthcare, energy, financial services. Not because I chase industries — because the underlying problem is always the same shape.

Three times. Three industries. Same result —

02

Three transformations.
One repeatable move.

Each company arrived fragmented. Each left running as a single system.

Annual ERP Savings $600K DME Express · 350 employees, 9 states
Statements Automated 600 One engagement, large PE firm
Records Freed 3B+ ConocoPhillips · Fortune 500 scale
DME Express

A PE-backed operation running entirely on Excel — rebuilt as one system.

Durable medical equipment · ~350 employees · 70+ warehouses · 9 states · May 2024 – Present
$600K/yr ERP savings
Challenge

No technology function at all — every operation across 70+ warehouses ran on disconnected Excel files. No central data, no reporting, no way for leadership to trust its own numbers.

What I did

Built the entire function from zero — architecture, engineering, data, analytics, AI, vendors. Data warehouse live in 4–6 weeks. Led the ERP modernization onto Odoo 18, rebuilt EMR integrations (HCHB, via HL7), and replaced a legacy call vendor with a HIPAA-compliant Voice AI agent.

Result

~$600K/year saved on ERP licensing alone, plus ~$234K/year in labor savings from Voice AI. Spreadsheet chaos → one connected system — architecture reviewed by the PE investor's own diligence partner ahead of continued investment.

Embark

The same move, run at once across a whole client portfolio.

Data & analytics consulting · 5–10 concurrent clients · finance, energy, private equity · Apr 2022 – May 2024
600 statements automated
Challenge

Mid-sized companies across three industries making decisions on scattered, manual data — each needing to become data-driven without a year-long transformation project.

What I did

Led data strategy for 5–10 clients at a time — centralized Azure data repositories, the pipelines feeding them, and for one large PE firm, a Python automation built with Workiva that took over financial-statement preparation end to end.

Result

600 financial statements automated in a single engagement — and a repeatable playbook proving the pattern scales across many companies and industries at once, not just one.

ConocoPhillips

Proof the pattern holds at Fortune 500 scale.

Global energy · Global Analytics program · 2013 – 2022
3B+ records freed
Challenge

The Global Analytics program was straining under how high-frequency sensor data tied into operational systems — a materializing strategy duplicating billions of records and slowing the whole platform down.

What I did

Owned the global program's data model. Redesigned the integration from materializing to dynamic enrichment, then led a staggered upgrade of 500+ Spotfire reports across business units — without disrupting daily operations.

Result

~3 billion records freed and a faster analytics platform across the enterprise — the same architectural discipline that fixed a 350-person company, proven at global-major scale.

The full record, for anyone who wants it —
