I've spent my career working at levels most people never see: advising on economic systems and emerging technology for governments and international institutions, and building the technology myself. This is a way to bring that same thinking directly to your question, without the months-long engagement it usually takes to get it.
Economics, AI strategy, career positioning, business decisions, brand and technology direction. If it touches money, markets, AI, or a decision you're close to, bring it.
- AI adoption and where to actually start
- Career positioning in a shifting economy
- Business and brand decisions
- Economic and market questions
Why this costs less than it should.
Advising at the level I've worked at usually isn't an hour. It's weeks and months of engagement, and it's priced accordingly. I built all of it with almost no audience online, which means I know how to navigate at the highest levels, and it also means I'm now doing something new: opening a small door to a wider audience.
So this rate is intentionally accessible. Not because the thinking is entry-level, but because I'm meeting people at the start of building something online, the way I once did. As that audience grows, this won't stay this size. If the timing is right for you, it's right now.
