Behind Maverick AI.
A solopreneur with nearly two decades in enterprise IT — bringing what he's learned home to the small businesses that need it most.
Patrick Nerbun
Hi, I'm Patrick — founder of Maverick AI Consulting.
I've spent the last 17 years working at the enterprise level, with the last four-plus focused on AI. I've watched firsthand as artificial intelligence transformed massive companies — cutting costs, growing revenue, and unlocking entirely new ways of working.
But I've also seen what's happening on the other side. While Fortune 500s race forward, most small businesses are being left behind — and many don't even know how far. That worries me. The small business that can't adopt AI in the next few years won't just fall behind. It risks losing customers, losing efficiency, and eventually losing its place in the market.
That's why I started Maverick AI.
What I bring to the table
For nearly two decades I've worked as a Solutions Architect — the role that exists to solve hard, messy problems by finding creative paths through them. That mindset is everything when it comes to small business AI. Most owners can't afford a rip-and-replace approach. They need someone who can look at the tools they already have, the people they already trust, and the budget they actually have — and find smart ways to make AI work within them.
That's what I do. Practical AI. Grounded in real enterprise experience. Built to fit what you already use — so it doesn't cost you an arm and a leg.
Why small business
Small businesses are families. They support families. They employ families. The people who run them and the people who work for them are doing real work for real reasons.
That matters to me. Family matters to me. If we work together, you're getting me — not a team, not a junior consultant, not a sales pitch. Just a senior Solutions Architect who has spent years building enterprise AI, and now wants to bring that expertise to the families behind the businesses that need it most.
