Second Act, AI-Powered
From corporate meeting rooms to AI employees that work while I sleep.
I spent decades leading teams at TIAA, Nuveen, and OppenheimerFunds. Today, I run ViTL, a video company building AI video infrastructure for financial services firms — and I'm quietly assembling a portfolio of AI Employees that go out and earn money for me on their own.
I'm building in public so late-career professionals can see what a dignified, profitable second act looks like in an AI world.
What I'm Building
Work
Two decades of corporate leadership, now channeled into AI-native companies.
Corporate Track Record
Executive roles across TIAA, Nuveen, and OppenheimerFunds leading creative production, multimedia, events, UX, and brand engagement.
ViTL — AI Video for Financial Services
ViTL provides video infrastructure and production workflows purpose-built for asset managers, wealth platforms, and financial brands that need compliant, repeatable content.
The Portfolio
What I Mean by "AI Employees"
When I say "AI Employees," I'm talking about software agents that own a narrow, well-defined job: prospecting, monitoring, content assembly, distribution, or insight generation.
They don't replace wisdom or judgment — they make those things scale.
My focus is on pairing institutional-grade experience with an army of these AI workers, so every hour of effort produces outsized leverage.
Sunday Ready
Automated, AI-driven bulletin creation so churches can show up excellently every Sunday without a design team.
Second Act AI
Content, tools, and live examples for people 50+ who want to build a portfolio of AI-assisted income streams on their own terms.
Arvo
Always-on scraping and trend detection for TikTok Shop, helping social sellers see what's surging before it's saturated.
