Build with AI

Everyone is hearing that AI is going to change their industry, but most people still use it as a fancy search engine or a tool for drafting basic text. Useful, yes, but nowhere near its full potential. I help people use Claude as part of their actual work. That might mean creating reusable Skills, setting up meeting notes that automatically capture decisions and follow-ups, or building a custom workflow for research, planning, or client delivery. The point is to build something around the way you work and teach you how to use and adapt it yourself. I came to this as a consultant, not an engineer. Recently, I rebuilt a research firm’s report production process, reducing the time spent on each report from about 15 hours to roughly 3, with quality checks built in. The decks were just one example. The real value is finding the work that takes too long or depends too heavily on you, then building a practical way for Claude to help.

AI isn’t just changing what we build—it’s transforming how we work. I help professionals and teams move from experimenting with AI to integrating it into their everyday workflows. Together, we’ll identify high-value opportunities, explore agentic tools, redesign workflows, and establish the processes needed to scale AI responsibly. My focus is practical: less AI hype, more measurable impact. No engineering background required.

I'm a Staff Software Engineer at LinkedIn with 7+ years building production AI systems that serve thousands of users daily. I've built AI agents, RAG pipelines, and LLM-powered products from scratch, including systems that reduced sales prep time by 70% and an AI assistant serving 3,000+ sellers. I hold multiple patents in AI/ML. I don't just teach AI concepts. I build and ship AI systems every day. I coach engineers, PMs, and builders who want to go beyond surface-level prompting and actually build with tools like Claude Code, LangChain, MCP servers, and vector databases. Whether you want to become the AI person on your team or ship your first AI-powered product, I'll help you get there with battle-tested patterns from real production systems.

I'm Liza Mash Levin — CEO and co-founder of Gable, a venture-backed workplace technology company with over $12M in funding. Before that, I spent a decade at Microsoft leading product and engineering teams in cybersecurity and cloud. I hold degrees in computer science and electrical engineering from Tel Aviv University and an MBA from Stanford Graduate School of Business. But none of that is the reason you should work with me. Here's what is: I run my entire company using AI. Not in theory — in practice, every single day. My AI reviews every Slack channel and sends follow-ups I used to spend hours writing. It triages my inbox and drafts responses before I even open Gmail. It preps my 1-on-1 meetings with each direct report by pulling context from emails, Slack threads, and previous notes. It tracks every open item across every channel so nothing falls through the cracks. It plans my day, manages my LinkedIn presence, and handles outreach — all while I focus on the work that actually moves my business forward. This isn't a side project or an experiment. This is how I operate as a CEO, and it saves me over 10 hours every week. I built this system because I was drowning in the same operational busywork every leader drowns in. And now I teach others how to build the exact same thing — customized for their role, their tools, and their business.

I build AI systems for small businesses and operators who are drowning in manual work. My clients aren't experimenting with AI. They're using it to run their businesses: automating accounts payable, triaging inboxes, generating daily reports, and replacing hours of repetitive tasks with tools that run themselves. Background: McKinsey-trained, built and sold software products, currently running AI consulting engagements for real estate, property managers, grocery delivery, construction, dental, and professional services companies. I've built agentic workflows, custom automation pipelines, and AI-powered internal tools that real teams use every day. Whether you're building for a team or streamlining your own work, I'll help you design and ship something that actually runs in your day-to-day.

I help senior professionals and working parents build a personal AI team: a small set of agents that take over the remembering, collecting, organizing, and formatting, so your attention goes to the work that actually needs you. No technical background required. I built mine first, on Claude Code, and it now runs my coaching practice, my weekly newsletter, and a good part of my family logistics. I am certified at Level 4 of the Leland AI Builder Program (multi-agent systems) and spent nearly 20 years in product and analytics at Amazon, IBM, and Ogilvy. What makes this different from a tools tutorial: I am an ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC). We start with what you want your week to look like and what must stay human, then design the system around it: an audit of your week, a rules file that says what an agent may never do, a first agent running by session two, and a working system by the end. The judgment stays yours; the routine layers go to the agents. Rated 5.0 across 36 reviews. I write about these builds every week in The Personal Agent.

Welcome to my profile!

My expertise lies in creating user-centric, scalable design systems that balance innovation with business objectives. Whether you're looking to optimize your product design processes or integrate AI-driven solutions, I'm here to guide you. Let's connect and explore how I can help you achieve your goals!

I teach AI agents and automation from a very practical, operator’s perspective. My background is in hedge funds and venture capital, where I’ve worked with teams building AI-native workflows and deploying automation inside real businesses. At my fund (AI-native), we integrated AI across research, operations, and internal tooling, and I’ve helped portfolio companies design and implement AI agents that automate repetitive work, improve decision-making, and scale small teams. Because I’ve built and deployed these systems in production environments (and not just experimented with them) I focus on what actually works: designing useful workflows, choosing the right tools, and turning AI from a demo into a reliable part of a company’s operations.

I help professionals and teams improve productivity by designing smart, automated workflows that reduce manual work and eliminate inefficiencies. With hands-on experience using tools like n8n, Make, Zapier, and Airtable, I build systems that streamline daily operations, improve collaboration, and save valuable time. Through real-world projects across e-commerce, agencies, healthcare, and coaching businesses, I’ve helped clients save 15+ hours per week, improve follow-ups by 40%, and cut administrative tasks by up to 50%. I focus on practical, easy-to-use solutions that fit existing workflows and grow with your organization.

As an AI Automations Engineer at Leland and a AI Automation Expert at Brigham Young University, I have a strong foundation in developing and implementing AI-driven solutions to enhance productivity and workflow. The methodology stems from working as the lead AI engineer at 2 startups and is based in a methodical approach of problem solving. My experience includes creating training programs for business students to master automation workflows and leveraging AI tools, which has equipped me with the skills to coach individuals in optimizing their use of AI for productivity. I have successfully coached 5 clients, helping them integrate AI tools into their professional routines to achieve greater efficiency and impact.
