About

The person behind the practice.

Who

I’m Adam Kimball, and Applied Graphs is my practice. I’ve spent 15+ years building knowledge graphs, ontologies, and semantic layers—turning scattered, disagreeing information into structured knowledge that systems can actually reason over. I help businesses get there deliberately: with the data strategy, semantic architecture, and implementation path that make their knowledge work for them. It’s specialized work, and it’s the work I care about most. Applied Graphs is where I do it independently, for organizations that need it done right.

How I work

I work as a senior expert alongside your team—not another hire to onboard, not a team to manage. You get the person doing the work, not a layer between you and it. Engagements are scoped to a clear outcome and kept intentionally light: deep expertise, light footprint, no drag on your team. Most start with a conversation about where your knowledge lives today and where it needs to be.
