AI Strategy & Implementation
Husband. Dad. Sicangu Lakota. Data Scientist. Educator.
Building AI that actually works in production.
Practical AI consulting for organizations that need results, not slide decks. From strategy to deployment, focused on what ships.
About
AI that serves people, not the other way around.
I'm Mason Grimshaw -- husband, dad to 4, Sicangu Lakota from the Rosebud Reservation, and a Data Scientist/AI Engineer at Ode Partners.
I'm the Vice President of IndigiGenius, where we empower Indigenous communities in computer science and machine learning, and a co-founder of the Lakota AI Code Camp.
I work at the intersection of enterprise AI systems and community-centered technology. Every project starts with the same question: what problem are we actually solving?
Enterprise AI
Production-grade AI systems that deliver measurable value. Strategy, architecture, and implementation.
Tribal AI
Community-led technology for Indigenous nations. Sovereignty-first, capacity building, practical tools.
