Three ways to work together.

Benefits Modernization SME and Fractional Program Lead

For: State agencies, systems integrators, and teams bidding on integrated eligibility (IES) work.

• Advisory: from $150/hr
• Fractional program lead: $11,000/month for 20 hours a week
• Proposal red-team: $3,500 fixed

What you get:

• Delivery leadership from someone who has run eligibility-system work from the inside
• Accessibility (Section 508/WCAG) and security (ATO/NIST) built into the plan, not bolted on at the end
• A red-team review of your proposal’s approach, staffing, and compliance story before it goes out

Track record

• Project Director, Integrated Eligibility System, NYS Office of Information Technology Services: the platform behind New York’s SNAP, HEAP, Temporary Assistance, and EBT delivery
• Section 508/WCAG accessibility
• ATO/NIST controls and continuous monitoring
• Cloud, API, and identity infrastructure
• DevSecOps and CI/CD coordination
• Built independently: a Claude Agent SDK agent that maps requirements to the SNAP/FNS handbook, built on my own hardware

AI Workflow Audit and Pilot

For: Small and mid-sized teams that suspect AI could take hours off routine work but want proof first.

• Workflow audit: $2,500 fixed, two weeks
• Pilot build: $3,500–7,500
• Care retainer: $750/month

What you get:

• A two-week audit of how the work actually gets done
• One working automation delivered during the audit
• If I don’t find at least 5 hours a week of savings, you get a refund
• A pilot built and handed over with a person accountable for every decision

Fractional Project and Implementation Manager

For: Organizations with an implementation that needs a PMP-certified lead but not a full-time hire.

• Hourly: from $95/hr
• Packages: $3,600/month for 10 hours, or $7,000/month for 20 hours

What you get:

• Plans, schedules, status reporting, and risk management
• Vendor and stakeholder coordination
• Rollout, training, and change management
• Agile or traditional delivery, whichever fits your team
