MY CAREER TRANSFORMATION STORY [3-MINUTE VIDEO] I just released a video that explains why I'm at events like this—and why I'm so passionate about helping professionals prepare for an AI-augmented future. After 20 years building my career in corporate security—earning my CPP designation, leading operations across national and international locations, designing security systems and command centers—I made a decision in 2023 that changed everything. I recognized that AI wasn't just a new technology. It was fundamentally reshaping every profession, every business model, every career path. So I built Pure Expertz and the Block by Block AI Safety and Security Alliance.

WHY THIS MATTERS RIGHT NOW

Whether you're in real estate, business operations, security, or organizational leadership—2026 is the year to make your AI strategy real. The professionals who thrive won't be the ones with the most experience. They'll be the ones who know how to integrate AI into that experience.

Wednesday's event is about economic outlook and market trends. But underneath all of that is a bigger question: How do you position yourself—and your business—for a fundamentally different future?

That's what Pure Expertz is designed to help you answer. I hope to see you Wednesday. And I hope you'll join our ecosystem.
