Max is the Applied AI Architect at Cypress International. He designs and builds the systems that let the firm's people fuse their own knowledge with open-source and proprietary market, budget and legislative data, so they can better advise and inform clients.
The signals that matter in defense rarely sit in one place: a priority surfaces in budget justification books and congressional marks, then reaches industry through solicitations, consortia, prime contracts and subawards. Bringing those records together gives Cypress's experts a common operating picture, and their years in government and industry tell them what it means for a client.
He applies the same discipline to the firm's operations, removing the friction that sits between a consultant and the client's problem. Less time goes to hunting for information and to administrative overhead, which leaves more for the client and lowers the cost of supporting each engagement.
Max holds a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science with a minor in Business Administration from Villanova University and completed an internship at the United States Army War College researching the Russia-Ukraine War.
