The Cross-Functional Builder

From Facility Manager to Strategic Capital Allocator

I spent a decade optimizing buildings the old way. Then I realized the real leverage wasn't in the equipment — it was in the intelligence layer sitting on top of it.

I work on AI deployment in commercial buildings across APAC, where grid constraints make energy efficiency a survival strategy, not a nice-to-have.

Why 92% of CRE AI Pilots Fail — And How Sensor Fusion Fixes It

The short answer: it's not the AI. It's the data layer underneath it. A new JLL study reveals that 92% of real estate companies are now running AI pilots — but only 5% report achieving their goals. The gap isn't model quality.
