Your Company Needs an AI Strategy.
Not Another Slide Deck.
Most mid-market businesses are running scattered AI experiments with no roadmap, no governance, and no one connecting the dots. You need an embedded AI leader, not a full-time executive hire. That is exactly what this is.
Sound Familiar?
- Your team is experimenting with ChatGPT but nobody is connecting it to business outcomes.
- You are evaluating AI vendors but have no internal expertise to vet their claims.
- Employees are using AI tools with no governance, no data privacy guidelines, and no oversight.
- You know AI matters, but a full-time Chief AI Officer is not in the budget (or the org chart).
- You brought in a consultant once. They left a PDF. Nothing changed.
You do not need another presentation. You need someone in the room who builds AI systems, trains teams, and holds the strategy accountable.
What You Get
A fractional AI leader embedded in your business rhythm. Not a vendor. Not a one-time trainer. An ongoing strategic partner.
AI Roadmap & Strategy
A clear, prioritized plan for where AI fits in your business. Which departments, which tools, what order, what timeline. Tied to your actual goals, not generic "AI transformation" language.
Bi-Weekly Strategy Sessions
60-minute sessions with your leadership team. We review progress, adjust the roadmap, evaluate new tools, and keep the strategy moving forward. Consistent cadence, real accountability.
Monthly Team Training
As new tools and workflows are introduced, your team gets hands-on training so adoption sticks. Not a dump-and-run. Ongoing enablement as your AI maturity grows.
Governance & Data Privacy
AI use policies, data handling guidelines, and vendor evaluation frameworks so you adopt AI safely. Clear guardrails your team can actually follow.
Vendor & Tool Evaluation
There are hundreds of AI tools fighting for your budget. I help you cut through the noise, evaluate what actually fits, and avoid expensive mistakes.
Quarterly Business Reviews
Every 90 days, we measure what is working, what is not, and where to invest next. Real ROI conversations, not activity reports.

"Working with Tim felt like adding three new team members, without the payroll."
Mallory Soulliere, Marketing Director, FED Design/Builders
Why Tim, Not a Consulting Firm
Most fractional AI leaders come from strategy backgrounds. I come from building.
Practitioner, Not Theorist
I write production code, build AI applications, run local LLMs, and ship real systems daily. When I evaluate a tool for your business, I have already tested it myself.
Cross-Industry Experience
I have led AI integration across manufacturing, professional services, construction, marketing, and nonprofit teams. I understand operational workflows, not just technology. That means practical recommendations grounded in how your business actually runs.
You Get Me
Not a junior associate. Not a rotating team. When you hire UYA, you get Tim in your boardroom, across the table, invested in your outcomes. Every time.
19 Years of Training
Strategy is worthless if your team cannot execute. I have nearly two decades of experience making complex technology practical for real people in real roles.
Zero Hype
I will not sell you on AGI or promise AI will replace your workforce. I will tell you what works, what does not, and where to spend your money. Straight talk, always.
Local & Embedded
Based in the Great Lakes Bay Region. On-site when you need it. Not a Zoom-only relationship from a coastal agency. I am your neighbor.
Is This Right For You?
Fractional AI Leadership works best for companies in a specific stage. Here is how to know if you are a fit.
Mid-Market Companies (50-500 employees)
Big enough to benefit from AI strategy, not big enough to hire a full-time AI executive. This is built for you.
Operations-Heavy Businesses
Manufacturing, construction, professional services, logistics. If your teams run on documentation, reporting, and process workflows, AI can transform how work gets done.
Companies Already Experimenting
Your people are using ChatGPT. Some departments love it. Others are skeptical. Nobody is coordinating. You need a strategy, not more experiments.
Leadership Teams Ready to Commit
This is not a passive engagement. It works when leadership is bought in, shows up to sessions, and is ready to make decisions. If that is you, let us talk.
Start With a Conversation
No pitch. No pressure. Tell me about your business and where you are with AI. I will let you know if fractional leadership is the right fit, or if a different path makes more sense.
