Phil Lamb

For twenty-plus years, Phil has been the person companies call when the problem touches everything — when the fix has to work across systems, teams, and incentives, and has to be elegant, inexpensive, and durable. Operator background in revenue, systems design, and organizational change from seed-stage to scale. Hands-on AI/ML practitioner — architecture and deployment, not just strategy decks.

Through Live Oak Digital, Phil works with organizations ranging from growth-stage companies to national nonprofits. His current work includes a partnership with the American Council of the Blind on accessibility-focused AI integrations — modernizing their Audio Description Project and developing a grant-funded MCP server implementation — an effort that grew out of conversations at the MCP Dev Summit and led to a published essay on why accessibility must be designed into the agentic AI ecosystem from day one.
