About

I help organizations adopt AI without losing what makes them themselves.

AI strategy, cybersecurity, creative empowerment, and the human side of all of it.

I spent fifteen years building and securing technology — infrastructure, networks, risk, governance. I know what happens when systems fail and I know what it takes to make them hold. That background shaped how I think about everything, including artificial intelligence: not as hype, not as magic, but as a powerful system that needs to be understood, secured, and used well.

Today I do that work in two ways. As a strategist, I help organizations approach AI — adoption, governance, risk, cybersecurity, the gap between what the technology actually does and what marketing decks claim. As an educator, I run trainings and workshops, speak at conferences, and mentor leaders. Most of the work I care about most happens in those rooms.

Here's some of what that's actually looked like.

I've been a speaker at Skills4Future, the Coca-Cola Company and Coca-Cola Foundation initiative, teaching young people aged 16 to 26 how to work with generative AI — prompting, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Suno for music, image generation models, and how to use this stack as a real competitive skillset for the careers they're walking into. I've stayed engaged with Coca-Cola across years, returning to teach their teams about creativity, automation, robotics, physical AI, the truth about prompting, the long-term risks of agent systems, and how marketing teams can collaborate with agencies in this new landscape.

At E. Wedel, the iconic Polish chocolate company founded in 1851, I delivered dedicated AI training for the marketing and R&D teams — what AI actually is, how brand teams can leverage it, how AI influencers are built behind the scenes, video generation with Sora, Runway, and HeyGen, music creation with Suno and Udio, tool orchestration through MCP, n8n, and Zapier, and a deep dive into Microsoft Copilot (which they specifically requested for internal adoption). We also worked through safety, legal exposure, and what's actually acceptable inside a regulated brand.

At Confidence Conference 2025, the C-level cybersecurity track, I presented on behalf of Standard Chartered about deepfakes — the threat landscape, how threat actors are weaponizing generative AI for scams and fraud, and the playbook organizations need to build for detection, response, and resilience.

In June 2026 I'll be on the panel at Women in Tech Warsaw, talking about unconscious bias in AI systems — why inclusive language and inclusive design matter in the age of AI.

Beyond named events, I deliver standing workshops on AI vulnerabilities, prompt engineering at both introductory and advanced levels, AI in daily life, and AI for cybersecurity teams and security operations centers. I also mentor directors and senior leaders on how to approach AI inside regulated environments — what leadership actually needs to know, how to govern adoption without freezing it, and how to surface the vulnerabilities most organizations don't realize they're already running.

What ties all of this together is that I work across boundaries most consultants don't cross: cybersecurity, AI strategy, enterprise governance, creative tooling, robotics, and the human side of how organizations actually adopt technology. Most people speaking about AI come from one of those worlds. I work in all of them at once.

That's the work.
