About Balboa Insights

Balboa Insights exists to make senior-level data and AI expertise accessible to organizations of all sizes — without the overhead, bureaucracy, or bait-and-switch of a large consultancy.

Our Mission & Leadership

Built to Do Meaningful Work

Balboa Insights was founded on a simple belief: organizations with high data needs but lean internal resources deserve the same quality of strategic thinking as the largest enterprises — without paying for the overhead that comes with it.

Founded by a principal with 10+ years of experience across AI implementation, advanced analytics, and data strategy, the firm brings a cross-industry perspective honed across European tech market research, telecom OEM analytics, retail optimization, and nonprofit operations.

We are building toward a team of senior practitioners who share this conviction. Every engagement today reflects that future: senior-level involvement, direct client access, and outcomes that matter.
