Bower Himes

I'm a Technical Program Manager with 15+ years of experience building and deploying technology at organizations ranging from startups to global enterprises — including Akamai Technologies, Bose Corporation, and iRobot.

I specialize in AI — what current tools can actually do, and how to put them to work. I focus on nonprofits because AI is affordable, scalable, and most organizations in this space haven't had the guidance to adopt it well. I help teams adopt AI across the entire organization — building confidence, establishing trust in the tools, and staying ahead as the technology evolves — so your team can serve more people.

Built for nonprofit teams, at every level

Whether you're an executive exploring what AI can do or a team ready to integrate it into daily workflows, I meet you where you are — with practical, hands-on guidance anchored in real nonprofit challenges.

Where we often start

Many organizations don't yet have an AI policy in place — and that's a reasonable place to begin. Before your team adopts any tools, we establish the internal guidelines that govern how AI is used: what's in scope, what's off-limits, and how staff should handle AI-generated work. We also help you design appropriate consent language for the clients and communities you serve. Using AI in service delivery carries real obligations to the people who trust you — and getting that right from the start protects both them and your organization.
