ABOUT SCOTT RHODES

Twenty-five years in data systems taught me one thing clearly: the organizations that win aren\'t the ones with the best data — they\'re the ones with the clearest picture of what their data actually means.I\'ve built that picture across federal contracting, DoD program management, and enterprise P&C insurance software. My background spans data warehousing architecture, ETL and CDC pipeline design, and cloud platform product management — most of it in regulated, compliance-heavy environments where getting the data model wrong has real consequences.What I\'m focused on right now is the practical gap between what AI can do with structured enterprise data and what actually gets deployed responsibly in regulated industries. At the individual level, I\'m in the weeds — working with AI-assisted development tools, exploring spec-driven requirements workflows, and translating relational data models into graph structures. That hands-on orientation is deliberate. I don\'t think you can make good product decisions about AI from a distance.If you\'re thinking about data governance, AI implementation in regulated environments, or the architecture layer between AI systems and structured enterprise data, I\'m usually interested in that conversation.
