Here's the complete overview with everything integrated — regulation-first opening, REMVER fully gone, fintech resilience built in generically, current high-level work led up front, three books, no speed claims:
Get your application ISO 27001 certified, HIPAA compliant, GDPR ready, or FDA defensible. I write the policies, procedures, and compliance frameworks that regulated companies need to pass audits and launch. GDPR. HIPAA. ISO 9001. ISO 27001. FDA 21 CFR Part 11. A lot of the applications I work on use AI, so when it is in the stack I handle it correctly, layering in governance frameworks, privacy policies, and purpose-built agents trained on domain knowledge, not generic demos. 27 years in regulated industries. 300+ templates. Faster than traditional consulting using my trademarked AAIG methodology.
I am not a consultant who says "no." I find the "yes, if we do it this way" path that lets you move fast and stay compliant.
WHAT I BUILD
Policies, Procedures, and Quality Management. SOPs, quality manuals, work instructions, and complete QMS builds. ISO 9001/27001/42001 from gap assessment through certification readiness. Audit preparation, corrective action workflows, and management review packages. Rebuilt an entire QMS for a global clinical trials platform, zero audit findings.
Privacy Policies, Terms of Service, and Legal Compliance Documents. GDPR-compliant privacy policies, terms of service, cookie policies, data processing agreements, sub-processor agreements, consent frameworks, and data subject rights implementation. Fixed 7 live GDPR violations for an AI meeting platform. Built Django deletion workflows for right-to-erasure compliance. Global consent matrices covering US, EU, Canada, and Asia-Pacific.
Financial Services and Operational Resilience. Business continuity and IT disaster recovery frameworks for U.S. financial institutions. Operational resilience programs aligned with OCC, FDIC, FRB, and FFIEC guidance. SR 11-7 model risk status assessments. Regulatory framework mapping for banking and fintech compliance.
AI Compliance and Risk Frameworks. EU AI Act roadmaps. ISO 42001. NIST AI RMF. HIPAA Security Risk Analyses. Privacy impact assessments for GDPR, CCPA, and Colorado AI Act. GxP validation and 21 CFR Part 11 compliance for healthcare AI.
AI-Powered Product Development. Purpose-built AI agents and document-drafting suites trained on domain-specific regulatory knowledge, with proprietary multi-section architectures spanning 32+ regulatory frameworks and enterprise-grade quality gates. Agent suites built to replace $50K-$500K/year software platforms.
Content, Courses, and Books. Three published books on AI governance. 48,000-word KDP reference book. 12 Udemy courses with slide decks and speaker notes. Synthesia video content. Full enablement ecosystem, not just the framework.
CURRENT AND RECENT WORK
National AI Governance Framework. Developed the AI Governance Framework for the Republic of Liberia, integrating NIST AI RMF, OECD, UNESCO, EU AI Act, and African Union standards. Government-level deployment with training packages, implementation roadmaps, and stakeholder consultation.
Multi-Entity Financial Services Governance. Regulatory gap assessment and phased remediation program for a multi-entity fintech group, delivered through outside counsel. 35 findings across 10 governance domains, mapped to 13 frameworks and a multi-state applicability survey.
Enterprise Governance Platform Advisory. Independent strategic advisory to a governance and assurance platform on enterprise category positioning, adoption, and certification pathway, working with the executive team and board.
ISO 27001 Certification Program. Full certification preparation for a medical diagnostics software platform. Gap assessment, a fourteen-document ISMS, and a tiered implementation register from current state to audit readiness.
FDA Quality System Reconstruction. Design History File and ISO 14971 Risk Management File rebuilt from source for a medical device manufacturer under an active FDA commitment timeline, with an independent internal audit.
GDPR Controller Determination. Corrected a controller-versus-processor misclassification for an AI clinical platform under GDPR Article 4(8), reassigning data protection obligations to the right party.
THE FOUNDATION
27 years in regulated industries. Fortune 500: Alcon/Novartis (8 years, 200+ projects), Gilead, Genzyme, Pfizer, Baxter. Zero audit findings. Consent decree and FDA regulatory action leadership. MS Operations and Project Management. PMP certified 20 years. Contributing author, The FDA Group Newsletter (10,000+ executives). Published author of three books on AI governance.
300+ templates covering EU AI Act, ISO 42001, NIST AI RMF, ISO 27001, GDPR, CCPA, HIPAA, FDA 21 CFR Part 11, and Colorado AI Act. Every template refined through Fortune 500 implementations and delivered through 10-20+ iterations before handoff.

Fractional Chief of Staff | 25+ Yrs Executive Experience at Invesco & Beyond | Ops, Finance & Growth
Your business is growing — but instead of feeling in control, you're drowning in email, scattered vendors, broken processes, and decisions only you can make. That's exactly where I come in.
I'm Craig Bloodworth, a Houston-based fractional executive with 25+ years of senior leadership experience — including a 26-year career at Invesco, one of the world's largest asset management firms, where I co-led a 25-person global sales team, managed client portfolios representing $125 billion in institutional assets, and helped grow assets under management by 66% — from $75B to $125B.
Today I serve as Chief of Staff and acting CFO to the founders of Priority Investors, a Houston-based finance and real estate firm — providing strategic financial and operational leadership across their loan portfolio, real estate holdings, and multifamily renovation projects.
Through BloodworthXO, I work as a Fractional Chief of Staff — the embedded right-hand executive for founders of $1M–$20M businesses who are ready to replace operational chaos with clarity, structure, and momentum. Think of me as your quarterback: I coordinate everything so you can focus on growth, strategy, and what you do best.
Common ways I help founders:
◆ Build repeatable systems and rhythms (weekly, quarterly, annual) so the business runs without you in every decision
◆ Clean up the "messy middle" — processes, documentation, financial visibility, and org structure
◆ Prepare your business to be buyer-ready or investor-ready
◆ Coordinate your external experts (bookkeeper, accountant, marketing, IT, HR) so nothing falls through the cracks
◆ Build dashboards, task systems, and reporting cadences that reduce decision fatigue and give leadership real visibility
Most engagements start with a focused 2-week Diagnostic Assessment that delivers a prioritized action plan and quick wins — then move into a monthly retainer where I work as your embedded XO. Low-risk entry, high-impact outcome.
I'm based in Houston, Texas, and work fully remotely with U.S.-based founders. If you're feeling stretched thin, constantly firefighting, or preparing for growth, funding, or sale — let's talk.
