Governance that works because people want it to.

I've spent more than 20 years leading records modernization and information governance across government, legal, financial services, insurance, and Fortune 500 organizations — including time as a CIO. I haven't just advised on these programs; I've been accountable for them.

I've been the leader answering to the board and the executive asking busy teams to change how they work. So I connect governance to what leadership cares about — cost, risk, and getting things done — while respecting the realities of the people doing the work.

My strongest results have come as an outside partner. As interim IG Director at a leading independent retailer of tires and wheels in the US, I built alignment across the CISO, CIO and IG Committee and took the program from maturity level 1 to level 3 in two and a half years.

I join your team as a senior information governance leader and hands-on partner for a fraction of a full-time role. I set direction, work alongside legal, compliance, IT and operations, get decisions made and build the ownership that keeps governance going.

Assessments show where you fall short; they don't get people to change. I bring 20 years of making governance work inside real organizations, and I measure success by adoption: governance people embrace, not a completed report.

No. I work alongside and as part of your existing team, never as a replacement, auditor, or overseer, and I leave capability behind rather than dependence.

AI is moving faster than most governance programs can keep up, and it draws on whatever information you hold, including outdated or over-shared content. Policy is the output of good governance, not a substitute for it, so more rules just drive AI underground. Practical governance your people embrace lets you move quickly without adding risk.

Who will I actually work with?

Me, directly. I work with only two or three organizations at a time, so you get continuity and genuine attention rather than whoever is next in a network.

Why a fractional partner rather than a full-time hire?

An outside partner can sit alongside the politics without being part of them. My strongest results have come as an outside interim leader, aligning senior stakeholders across competing priorities. You get senior experience and an independent voice, without the cost of a permanent hire.
