Hart AI Governance — Unleash AI. Keep the leash.
From Y2K to AI — 27 years of compliance evolution
Y2K → AI  ·  27 Years

I was doing compliance before AI was a boardroom conversation.

I started in FDA-regulated pharmaceutical IT in 1999 — that's 21 CFR Part 11 since the beginning, through Y2K, through GDPR, through the full arc of regulated-industry compliance. I have spent 27 years inside the kinds of organizations that cannot afford to get it wrong: Pfizer, Novartis, Genzyme, Gilead, Baxter.

In 2025 I founded HAIG — Hart AI Governance — to bring that depth of experience to the AI governance space. Not as a generalist. Not as someone who read the frameworks last year. As someone who has been building compliance infrastructure, running audits with zero findings, and managing 200+ projects across the most regulated industries in the world.

I hold a Master of Science in Operations and Project Management and have maintained my PMP certification for 20 years. I developed the national AI governance framework for the Republic of Liberia and created the trademarked AAIG™ methodology.
