About
Most organisations know they need to do something about AI. Very few know where to start. That is the gap I fill.
I work as a Fractional Chief AI Officer for public organisations, professional services firms, financial institutions and law firms. I help them understand the AI landscape honestly, define what AI should do for them, choose and supervise the right tools and contractors, build AI literacy across their teams, and stay alongside them until adoption is real. Because I have built production AI systems myself in regulated environments, I know what vendors will tell you, what they will not, and what to verify independently. I founded an AI company whose clients include a top-10 international law firm, I built a university Data Science programme from scratch, and I have led more than 600,000 euros of public research funding.

How I Help
Most organisations know they need to do something about AI. Very few know where to start. The vendors will answer that question, but in their own interest. I come in on your side of the table.
Fractional Chief AI Officer
Serious AI leadership without a full-time hire. I help you understand the landscape honestly, define what AI should do for your organisation, choose and supervise the right tools and contractors, and stay alongside your team until adoption is real. Engagements: ongoing fractional mandates, project-based advisory, or structured pilots with defined outcomes.
AI Literacy and Training
I design and deliver AI literacy programmes for professional and public-sector teams with no prior AI background. Every programme is built around transparency, traceability and human oversight as working principles, and satisfies the AI literacy obligation under Article 4 of the EU AI Act with documented outcomes. 93% overall satisfaction rate.
AI you can be accountable for
I help you build or choose AI systems that are honest about what they know and do not know, so the people using them can trust them and remain responsible for the outcome. Deployment options that keep your data inside your organisation, aligned with GDPR and the EU AI Act.
Research and funded projects
As principal investigator I have led more than 600,000 euros of public research funding, including an FNR CORE grant, Luxembourg's most competitive instrument. My access-to-justice work built AI that helps the public navigate the law, including a patent law assistant.
Academic standing
33 international refereed conference papers and 3 journal papers, 402 citations, h-index 12. Reviewer for international journals and for Horizon and Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions, with a best-paper award among my co-authored work. I have supervised PhD, master, and bachelor students and speak regularly at industry and academic events.
Built to Be Trusted
Generic AI sounds equally confident whether it is right or wrong. For legal work, that is the whole problem. This is the standard I build to.
