D. The Data Guy™

I build data systems that make sense to real people.My work sits at the intersection of AI, infrastructure, and community impact. Whether I’m advising public agencies, training small businesses, or architecting enterprise-grade data systems, my mission stays the same:

Make data human
Make it actionable
Make it work for the communities it represents

Why I Do This Work?

Most organizations don’t have a data problem. They have a clarity problem. Information lives in spreadsheets, inboxes, CRMs, surveys, dashboards, and platforms that don’t talk to each other. Leaders feel the pressure to “do AI” without having the foundation in place. Funders want measurable outcomes, but programs lack structured systems to track impact. I help organizations slow down, zoom out, and build the systems behind their data the right way.

Because when your data house is in order, decisions get easier.

What I Do

AI for Small Business & Nonprofits
AI for Small Businesses & Nonprofits
I help small businesses and nonprofits use AI in ways that actually support their day-to-day work.

Not hype. Not buzzwords.

I simplify data, automate workflows, and design practical no-code and low-code solutions that save time and stretch limited resources. My goal is to help organizations make smarter, data-informed decisions, without needing a full engineering team to get there.

AI should feel empowering, not overwhelming.
Data Literacy & Visualization Training
Data Literacy & Visualization Training
I teach people how to tell better stories with their data.

From national AI conferences to grassroots community workshops, I focus on making complex information accessible and actionable. I help leaders move from “we have data” to “we know what to do next.”

Data shouldn’t just live in a spreadsheet.

It should drive strategy.

Impact needs structure.

I work with nonprofits, foundations, and public-sector teams to build performance frameworks that reflect real community priorities, not just reporting requirements. That means designing meaningful KPIs, aligning metrics to mission, and helping organizations use data to tell human-centered stories that resonate with stakeholders.

Because numbers alone don’t move people.

Stories backed by data do.
Privacy, Ownership, and Sovereignty Frameworks
Privacy, Ownership & Data Sovereignty
Trust matters.

I design data systems with privacy and protection at their core, especially when working with historically marginalized communities. I advocate for ownership models that prioritize transparency, consent, and community control.

Technology should not extract from communities.

It should serve them.
Equity-Centered AI Toolkits
Equity-Centered AI Toolkits
AI is powerful, but only when built responsibly.

I create custom tools for grant analysis, outreach, operational efficiency, and impact tracking, with inclusion and bias mitigation built in from the start. My work focuses on transparency, accountability, and ensuring AI expands access rather than limiting it.

Technology should work for everyone.

What People Are Saying

Before this training, we were growing fast but didn’t fully understand how to protect our data. Now we do. We walked away with practical systems we could implement immediately, not just theory. I only wish we had this years ago. It would have saved us time, stress, and costly mistakes. This wasn’t just helpful, it was transformational.
Nonprofit Director
Data Privacy Workshop
This wasn’t just training, it was empowerment. For the first time, we feel confident applying for grants that require structured data tracking and analytics. D met us exactly where we were, broke everything down in a way that made sense, and gave us tools we can actually use. We don’t feel behind anymore, we feel prepared.

As a Black-owned business, I appreciated how the class addressed equity and AI. It wasn’t just technical, it was also deeply human.

AI for Social Impact Series
We partnered with The Data Guys™ to host a session for local nonprofits, and the feedback from attendees was overwhelmingly positive. It’s rare to find someone who can teach tech with this level of care and clarity.
Partner Organization
Event Host
Over the years I’ve taken a lot of workshops, but this was one of the few that actually gave me practical tools I could use right away.
Small Business Owner
Data Literacy Series
I never thought AI could be something my small business could use. This class broke it down in a way that felt real and doable. I walked away with tools I’m already using in my operations.
