Who I am
I'm Director & Architect Manager, AI Business Solutions at Microsoft — a leader, transformer and visionary who helps enterprises turn AI ambition into measurable business outcomes. I drive agentic transformation across Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement and the AI layer reshaping it, and I'm obsessed with the customer at every step.
I lead at scale — eight-figure delivery portfolios and large, multinational teams — but I'm a builder at heart. I was hands-on from the earliest days of Copilot and OpenAI, and I still make my hands dirty: prototyping, dictating to agents running parallel work, shipping. An empathic leader who makes the people around him better.
Early in crypto before it was consensus, AI-obsessed since the first real demos. I advise crypto startups, sit on boards as a NED, speak at events, and host "Asaf & Friends." The throughline: I turn what's next into what enterprises actually run.
Three forces reshaping how value gets created. I work where they overlap.
AI, obsessively — from the first ChatGPT demos to copilots running inside real enterprises. I help teams move past the wow and into deployed, accountable systems that change unit economics, not just the pitch.
An early believer, active investor and advisor to crypto startups. I look past the cycles to where blockchain quietly becomes infrastructure: real-world assets, provenance, and trust — like diamonds earning an unforgeable history on-chain.
My day job and my obsession: leading AI Business Solutions EMEA at Microsoft — driving agentic transformation across all of Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement (Service, CCaaS, Sales, Marketing, Field Service). Customer-obsessed, outcome-first: I turn enterprise platforms into change that actually lands in the P&L.
I carry the number and the vision at once — owning enterprise transformation from the boardroom slide to the production cutover.
Delivery portfolios owned & led — multi-ten-million USD, approaching nine figures.
Consultants, specialists & architects led across large, multinational teams.
Region owned for AI Business Solutions at Microsoft — strategy to delivery.
Hands-on since the earliest days of Copilot & OpenAI — a builder, not a spectator.
I lead with vision and empathy — customer-obsessed, accountable for the outcome, making the people around me better. Large teams, hard deadlines, regulated enterprises, eight-figure stakes. But I never left the workshop: I still prototype, dictate to agents running in parallel, and get my hands dirty when it counts.
The thesis
"The gap between what's technically possible and what's actually deployed is where the next decade of value lives. I spend my time closing it."

AI · WORKFLOW
Everyone asks "where can we use an agent?" Wrong question. Redesign the whole value chain — then decide where intelligence participates.

25 years of typing to each other. Now I dictate once and direct agents in parallel — the strategist, not the bottleneck.
Read on LinkedIn →AI · LEADERSHIP
The ritual is fading; the discipline stays. The new edge is imagining an outcome big enough for agents to go build.
