AI agents & automation
Help your team spend
less time on repeated tasks.
Some tasks are good candidates for automation. Others need a person to make the decision. I help you work out the difference and test an approach before you commit to a larger build.

A little about me
An engineer you
can speak to directly.
I've spent more than eight years building and improving software, including work at Bykea and on platforms for meal subscriptions, warehouses, and property appraisals.
Today I bring that experience to businesses and founders who need someone to help them work through a software problem and deliver the next step.
