AI Consulting
& Governance
Bring Google's AI playbook to your enterprise.
Before shadow AI breaks it.
Your team is already using AI. The question is whether you know what they're doing with it.
You don't have an AI adoption problem. You have an AI governance problem hiding inside one.
While leadership debates strategy, every department has already adopted three or four AI
tools. Marketing is in ChatGPT. Finance is in Copilot. Engineering is in Cursor. Customer
Service stood up an agent last quarter. Nobody is tracking which data has left your perimeter,
which decisions are now AI-influenced, what you're spending across teams and tokens, or what
your exposure is when the regulator asks.
61% of enterprises already host unauthorized AI tools, and only 26% can monitor them. The
companies that win the next three years won't be the ones that move fastest. They'll be the
ones that move fast with a governance backbone underneath.
That's what I build.
Different from talking to your usual consultant.
Most AI consultants are smart people who read the same papers you do. I spent the last four
years inside Google Cloud, designing the actual implementations for the companies you read
about in case studies.
At Google Cloud as Principal Architect (2021–2025): I led the technical
strategy for Google's priority customers across Latin America. Banking, healthcare, retail,
CPG, energy. Every engagement was the same problem in a different vertical: how do we move
from PoCs to production AI that doesn't break compliance, cost control, or the business?
Before Google, 15 years in financial services: At Banco de Bogotá, one
of Colombia's largest banks, I ran IT planning and architecture for 120+ engineers. I know
what enterprise governance, regulated environments, and "this can never go down" actually feel
like — not as theory, but as the job.
My academic background is in AI, not adjacent to it: MSc in Computer Science
with an AI specialization. My research was on multi-agent systems — which is exactly the
architecture every enterprise will be running by 2027. This isn't a pivot for me. It's twenty
years of compounding focus.
I speak the language on both sides of the table: Spanish and English. CFO and
CTO. Compliance and product. Investors and engineers. I've presented at Google HQ and on
stages across Latin America. The translation layer between AI capability and business outcome
is where I live.
Three ways
to work with me
From a single strategy session to a full AI governance and adoption roadmap. Choose the depth that matches where you are.
Strategy Session — $750
One 90-minute working session with a Principal AI Architect. For executives who need clarity on a specific decision, fast. Includes a structured intake form, the session itself (recorded if you want), and a 1-page written recap within 48 hours. No upsell.
Discovery Sprint — $15,000
A 3 to 4-week assessment that tells you exactly where your organization stands and what to do next. Stakeholder interviews, shadow AI inventory, maturity assessment against NIST AI RMF and ISO 42001, prioritized opportunity map, risk register, and executive readout deck.
Governance & Adoption Roadmap — from $45,000
A 6 to 8-week engagement that builds your AI governance framework and 12-month adoption strategy. Includes everything in Discovery, plus target operating model, reference architecture, two executive enablement workshops, and a change management plan.
How I work
Four principles
01
Business first, frameworks second
Every engagement starts with the question — what is the business outcome you're trying to create, and what's currently in the way? Frameworks come second. Most consultants do this backwards.
02
Co-build with your team
The fastest way to fail at AI governance is to have an outside consultant write a 90-page policy that no one inside the company can implement. I co-build with your people, so what we ship survives after I'm gone.
03
Field-tested reference implementations
The architectures and governance patterns I draw from are the ones I helped design at scale inside largest LATAM companies. You're getting field-tested patterns, not slideware.
04
Honest about what AI can't do
If your real problem is data quality, organizational silos, or a misaligned strategy, AI won't fix it. I'll tell you that on the first call, not in the third invoice.
Two decades inside the systems that can't fail.
Four years as a Principal Architect at Google Cloud, designing AI for banking, healthcare, retail, and energy. Fifteen years before that at one of Colombia's largest banks. This page is the compression of that experience.

Voices
"Kevin saw the gap in our AI rollout that nobody else could articulate. Six weeks later we had a governance framework that survived the board review."
Large LATAM Bank
"The clearest thinker I've worked with on enterprise AI. He doesn't waste your time."
Healthcare Group
"He's the bridge between what Google can do and what your business actually needs. Rare combination."

Common questions
Who do you work with?
Mid-market and enterprise companies, typically 200 employees and up. I focus on Latin America and U.S.-based companies operating in LATAM, but I take engagements globally when the fit is right. Deepest experience: banking, healthcare, retail, energy, and CPG.
What languages do you work in?
Spanish and English, fluently. Engagements can be delivered in either.
Do you do implementation?
I'm a strategy and architecture advisor. I design what gets built and govern how it gets built — but I don't take implementation engagements with my own team. When implementation is needed, I help you select and manage the right partner.
How fast can you start?
Strategy Sessions: within one week. Discovery Sprint: typically a 2-week kickoff lead time. Full Roadmap: 3 to 4 weeks lead time. I take a limited number of engagements at any one time.
Is everything confidential?
Yes. Standard NDAs are in place before any conversation that touches your business.
What if my company isn't sure where to start?
That's exactly what the Strategy Session is for. 90 minutes, $750, no further commitment. Most clients use this as their first conversation.
Figure out if there's a fit.
The fastest way to know if I can help is a 30-minute conversation. No deck, no pitch,just a focused discussion about what you're trying to do and whether I'm the right person to help you do it. If I'm not, I'll tell you who is.
