Founder, North Valley AI Security
The practice is built for small businesses, nonprofits, founders, professional services firms, and local organizations that need someone who can translate AI decisions, staff questions, data boundaries, tool settings, and everyday security practices into reasonable next steps.
The work emphasizes security-first decisions, scope-first review, training that matches real workflows, authorization before advanced review, and documentation that can actually be used after the engagement ends.
AI guidance that feels approachable
Security with clear business value

Veteran-owned local accountability
Founder-led practice
For smaller organizations, the right answer is usually not a giant enterprise program. It is a clear scope, practical training, careful AI boundaries, and security habits that fit the way the business actually works.
Clients work with the person responsible for the review, training, and handoff.
Advanced access, implementation, or review work is defined before anything sensitive is touched.
The website avoids analytics, tracking pixels, newsletter gates, and visitor databases.
The work emphasizes owner clarity and employee habits, not just tool recommendations.
Local service area
Work is centered on Chico and nearby Butte County communities, with practical support for Paradise, Oroville, Durham, Gridley, Orland, Corning, Red Bluff, surrounding areas, and remote clients. The goal is clear communication, practical next steps, and security decisions that fit smaller organizations.
