How I work

I build L&D operating models, not just training. The measurement systems, the governance, the process architecture, the team design. The work covers internal teams learning complex products and external partners and customers who need to implement, support, and manage them. Always post-sale, never sales enablement.

Tier 3 · Retained leadership

Fractional Head of Learning

3–6 months, ongoing retainer

Who it's for

Startups and scale-ups that can't justify a full-time Director L&D yet.

What you get
  • Hours-capped monthly retainer
  • Strategic leadership without the full-time cost
  • Stays engaged long enough to hire the right permanent lead
  • Hands-on work in addition to strategy

Why this work is different

Global-from-zero experience.

Most US-based L&D consultants have not built across continents. I did.

AI-native from the start.

Not AI tacked on to traditional L&D. Integrated through the operating model.

Published voice.

Writing weekly at Learning, Upgraded means the thinking is out there, not hidden.

Measurement discipline.

LTEM, Kirkpatrick, behavior change outcomes. Not just completions.
