Consultant, operator, strategic advisor — I've been on every side of this table. Now I work for you. Strategy, technology, and execution built around what your business actually needs.
Strategic counsel, enterprise architecture, and product development — built around what your business actually needs.
For executives and principals who need one person completely in their corner. I pressure test decisions before they are made, manage what you cannot be seen managing, and execute with the authority of the principal. Permanent, relationship-driven engagement — not transactional.
Full-stack MarTech strategy and implementation across the enterprise ecosystem — customer data platforms, journey orchestration, identity resolution, and audience activation. Backed by real data infrastructure: pipelines, warehouses, governance frameworks, and backend systems that make the front-end work.
Production SaaS applications built with AI at the core — not bolted on. Full-stack architecture, payments, auth, and infrastructure. If the idea is sound, I can ship it.
GA4 migrations, server-side GTM, data layer governance, BigQuery pipelines, and attribution modeling tied to outcomes that matter. Measurement strategy that changes decisions — not just produces reports.
I started in the U.S. Navy — where accountability is not a value statement, it's an operating condition. From there, JP Morgan Chase — managing digital analytics across 40M+ monthly consumer interactions and building the data infrastructure that unified behavior across siloed business units. Then Adobe, where I wasn't selling the platform. I was implementing it alongside their engineering teams and shaping the product roadmap from the inside. Then seven years leading Fortune 500 engagements across healthcare, financial services, and enterprise technology.
That path — buyer, vendor, consultant — is not a resume line. It's a lens. I know how the platforms were built, why clients buy them, where implementations fail, and what it actually takes to make enterprise technology perform at scale.
The Kern Group is not a staffing firm and not a big consultancy with account managers standing between you and the work. It is a principal-led practice built for clients who know what they need and want someone who will deliver it without theater. High-trust relationships. Clear accountability. Work that holds up.
Two production SaaS applications I designed, built, and launched — from zero to paying customers.
