Build Your First Personal AI Agent: A Practical System for Saving Time Without Losing Quality [5/28/2026] (Recording)

After this session, you will know how to design and deploy a simple personal AI agent that handles repeatable tasks without degrading the quality of your output. We will cover how to map your workflow to find the right automation entry points, how to prompt and chain AI tools to act on your behalf, and how to build in checkpoints that keep your judgment in the loop. Attending live means you can describe your actual setup and get a direct answer about where automation fits your specific situation, which a recording cannot replicate. The coach builds and iterates on AI systems as a practitioner, and this session is a rare look at how that thinking works in practice.

Claude Design: Build Campaign Ready Assets in 60 mins

​Most marketers leave a brief meeting with a direction and a timeline. You're going to leave this one with the assets. ​Join Albert C., a former marketer at Meta, for an exclusive AI Builder session where you'll produce three campaign-ready assets in real time. By the end of the hour, you'll have a landing page, a 5-slide social carousel, and a short product video, all built by you, on brief, from scratch. ​This isn't a walkthrough. You build alongside Albert C. the entire time, so you leave with finished work, not notes about finished work. ​The session covers prompt patterns for visual consistency, how to brief Claude on brand voice and color, and how to move efficiently across asset types without losing creative direction. You'll also walk away with a reusable prompt framework you can take back to any brief, for any product, so the work you do in this session isn't a one-time thing. ​Come with a product in mind. Everything else is provided.

Claude Essentials for Engineers [5/19/2026] (Recording)

Most engineers use Claude like a smarter autocomplete. Type a prompt, read the answer, type again. That's not a workflow — that's just waiting. In this 45-minute live session, I'll show you exactly how I've configured Claude to work in the background while I keep shipping. You'll see my real setup: Git worktrees running parallel agents on separate branches, async notifications that ping me when Claude's done, skills that produce production-quality output every time, and a CLAUDE.md that gives Claude deep context on my codebase without me repeating myself. WHAT YOU'LL WALK AWAY WITH → Git worktrees set up so you can run multiple Claude agents simultaneously without branch chaos → An async notification workflow that frees you from watching progress bars → A reusable skill you can use to get consistent, high-quality output on repeat tasks → A CLAUDE.md file structure that makes Claude immediately useful in any project WHO THIS IS FOR This session is built for engineers at all levels — whether you've never heard of CLAUDE.md or you're already using Claude daily and want to go deeper. Non-technical founders who work alongside engineering teams will also find the workflow principles directly applicable. WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT Everything in this session comes from shipping real projects with Claude. No theory, no slides full of bullet points. I'll be live in my actual environment, showing the tools and configs I use every day. You'll leave with things you can set up in under 30 minutes — and that will still be working for you months from now.

Build a Job Search Operating System (JSOS) [5/13/2026] (Recording)

Build Anything Series · Event 01 · Free · Live The job search is the most expensive workflow most people will ever run — and the one they're least equipped for. Spreadsheets, sticky notes, half-tracked outreach, lost interview notes. By the end of this hour, you'll learn how to create a complete Job Search Operating System to help you land your next offer. What we'll walk through live: - A real applicant tracker | every role, company, and contact in one view. Status, last action, next step, follow-up date. - Automated outreach + research | pull company context, drafts personalized outreach, surfaces the right people to message. - Synced notes, prep, offer comparison | interview notes that auto-link to the role, prep doc generation per company, structured offer comparison when it's time to choose. Who it's for: - People actively job searching or about to start - Career switchers, returning-to-work folks, recent grads - Anyone who's run a search before and remembers losing track of half of it Not a fit if: - You enjoy manual data entry and Excel-tab chaos - You'd rather pay $300 for a static prompt template that fails instead of learning the principles yourself - You want a one-click magic button I'll be honest about where AI helps and where it doesn't, and how to keep the system running without me. Bring your laptop and follow along, or lean in, watch, and replicate after.

Freeing the People's Data: AI Agents for Legislative Transparency [5/20/2026] (Recording)

Struggling to make sense of fragmented legislative data or build tools that surface it in a usable way? This session is for builders, policy professionals, and researchers who want to use AI agents to unlock and structure public legislative data for real transparency. You’ll learn how to design agents that gather and normalize data across sources, create workflows that turn raw information into searchable insights, and evaluate outputs for accuracy and bias. Attending live gives you the opportunity to ask technical and strategic questions about your own use cases and get clarity in real time. The speaker works closely with practitioners and will share the patterns they see when building systems that actually get used, along with what they look for when evaluating effectiveness and trust. If you’re serious about turning legislative data into something actionable, it’s worth joining live.

Build Your Personal Brand & Thought Leadership System with Claude + Notion [5/20/2026] (Recording)

Personal branding is your ticket to excelling in the AI age. Most professionals know they should be creating content yet almost none of us do it consistently. Not because we lack ideas, but because we have no system to enable consistency. In this session, we'll build one. Using the network analysis from last week, we'll use Claude to generate a content calendar built around your actual expertise, then turn each idea into multiple formats: a LinkedIn post, a story hook, a networking pitch, and more. Everything lives in a pre-built Notion template you duplicate at the start of the session, so you spend the full session generating content, not building infrastructure. Outcome for attendees: A content calendar tailored to their specific network audience and a reusable Claude + Notion workflow they can run every month independently Session pre-requisites: Claude account & Notion account — free is fine 🙂

Job Search Operating System | Prompt Library

Build Your Own Job Search OS — Companion Guide — the underlying system from the May 13 Build Anything session, packaged so you can recreate it from scratch. Inside: - Step-by-step build for the 6 trackers in Notion or Excel: full property lists, view filters, exact column headers - The full prompt library, every prompt mapped to a specific moment in your search (spotting a role, auto-filling an application, weekly inbox sweep, interview prep, reference calls) - A 7-day runbook to get the whole system live inside a week - Scheduled-task templates for the morning brief, weekly sweep, and Sunday retro - A failure-modes table for when the prompts don't behave This is for anyone running a real job search who's tired of holding 50 active threads in their head, rewriting "why this company" for the 47th time, or losing track of which recruiter said "check back in a month." You walk away with working trackers, prompts you can actually run, and daily/weekly cadence prompts to keep you up to date so you can focus on networking, prep and the more important human components of a real-life job search.

Getting Started With an Always-On AI Agent for the Working Professional [5/19/2026] (Recording)

After this session, you will know how to set up an AI agent that runs in the background of your work life, handling recurring tasks without requiring your attention each time. We will cover how to identify which professional workflows are worth automating first, how to choose and configure the right tools for a working professional's setup, and how to keep an agent running reliably after the initial build. Attending live means you can describe your actual job and get a direct read on where automation would give you the most leverage, something a recording cannot replicate. The coach works with AI agents daily and will share the patterns that separate setups that hold up over time from ones that quietly break.

Design Beautiful Presentations with Claude [5/19/2026] (Recording)

Build Anything Series · Event 02 · Free · Live Most people use Claude as a writing assistant and stop there. Then they open PowerPoint, fight with templates for two hours, and ship something that looks like every other deck. There's a better way. In this hour, we'll build presentations end-to-end with Claude — from a one-line brief to polished, on-brand slides. No templates, no stock-photo aesthetic, no drag-the-text-box-three-pixels-left. What we'll build live: - Generate a deck from a one-line brief — outline, structure, narrative arc, all in one prompt loop - Iterate without leaving Claude — slide-by-slide refinement using structured prompts (not "make it better") - Export polished, on-brand presentations — color systems, type, layout, rendered cleanly Who it's for: - Coaches, consultants, founders, PMs who present often and hate the deck-building tax - People who've prompted Claude for design work and gotten generic results - Anyone who wants their slides to feel like theirs, not a SaaS template Not a fit if: - You're already a senior visual designer with a tight workflow - You want to learn pure Figma/Keynote craft — this is about directing AI to do most of the work We'll talk about where Claude excels (structure, narrative, copy, layout systems) and where it still needs you (taste, judgment, the final 10% of polish). Bring a real project you'd like to work on — fastest way to learn.
