About

Enterprises keep failing at AI for a reason no one else covers. They have plenty of engineers and plenty of executives, but almost nobody in between who can translate AI strategy into execution and technology into value. I call it the Missing Middle, and it is where over 85% of AI initiatives go to fail. I train the people who fill that gap. Since 2017, I have helped over 9,000 senior ICs and executive leaders build the strategic AI capabilities their organizations are desperate for through instructor-led certification courses built on 26 proprietary frameworks and 700+ published articles of original research. Courses & Certifications: https://datascience.vin My curriculum goes beyond academic theory. It comes from 15 years in the trenches monetizing data and AI for enterprises like Airbus, Siemens, Walmart, and JPMC; engagements that have delivered over $4 billion in value. My practitioner-to-strategist journey is what my courses are designed to accelerate for others. My students walk away with: The ability to define, align, and manage AI initiatives that connect to revenue Frameworks for AI strategy, product strategy, agentic platform monetization, and opportunity discovery that work inside real organizational complexity An employer-reimbursable certification from an award-winning AI strategist recognized by The Wall Street Journal, Fast Company, NVIDIA, LinkedIn, and The Information If your organization is struggling to turn AI investments into returns, the problem is the Missing Middle.

Experience

Hroi certification training

Founder & Principal Course Instructor

Oct 2019Present · 6 yrs 6 mos

  • The certification programs that enterprises send their people to when AI initiatives need to start producing returns.
  • I built HROI because I kept seeing the same failure pattern in consulting engagements: organizations had strong technical teams and ambitious executive vision, but nobody in between who could translate one into the other. The courses train that person.
  • What makes the curriculum different from typical AI education:
  • Built from 15 years of enterprise consulting, not academic theory. Every lesson connects to a real engagement, a real failure mode, or a real monetization path
  • 700+ published articles and 26 proprietary frameworks form the intellectual backbone
  • Instructor-led and self-paced options + I teach every cohort personally
  • Employer-reimbursable certification designed for senior ICs and leaders who need strategic AI capabilities, not another technical credential
  • Over 9,000 professionals trained. Courses and enrollment: https://datascience.vin

V squared

CEO & AI Strategist

Apr 2012Present · 14 yrs · Reno, Nevada, United States

  • One of the first pure-play data and AI consulting firms in the world. Since 2012, V Squared has focused exclusively on one problem: helping enterprises monetize data and AI instead of just experimenting with it.
  • Our clients (including Airbus, Siemens, Walmart, JPMC, SLB, and over 20 SMEs) trust us because we operate at the intersection most firms can't reach. We connect AI technical strategy to commercial outcomes across product delivery, platform economics, and organizational transformation.
  • That work has delivered over $4 billion in value and produced the 26 proprietary frameworks that now form the foundation of my certification courses at datascience.vin. Every framework was built to solve a real problem inside a real enterprise, not in a classroom.
  • Core practice areas:
  • AI Product Strategy & Delivery
  • AI Monetization & Platform Economics
  • Organizational AI Readiness & Transformation
