Brandon Middleton - Prof B

Brandon Middleton

Prof B (and Lead Pastor @ VibeChurch)

I've spent 20 years in tech — software engineering at Cisco, to consulting at Slalom, to cloud at Microsoft and AWS, to Agentic AI at Replit. I've seen what works and what doesn't when orgs try to adopt emerging tech.

For the past 7 years, I've taught at Stanford d.School, helping business leaders navigate emerging technology. I'm also an instructor at Campus.edu, where I teach "Vibe Coding" — building software with AI tools.

I'm not here to sell you hype. I'm here to help you build a pragmatic AI strategy that actually works for your business.
