From AI hobbyist to AI builder: Ship working AI in weeks, not months
A few years ago I was a strategist and consultant who reformatted PPT slides and wrote zero code. Today, I ship production AI systems: Multi-tier Agents, Skills, RAG pipelines, MCP servers, automated reporting, and full-stack apps backed by real evaluation frameworks. I taught myself by building, and alongside my work as a consultant, I'm currently building two AI-first products of my own. I've operated on the front lines and helped build product for Fortune 100 companies, with a background spanning product, tech, strategy, operations, analytics, finance, and people leadership. I coach the way I learned: Hands-on, working sessions, real systems shipped. Whether you run a small business, do consulting, or something else entirely, I would love to share what I've learned. If you want to stop using AI like a search engine and start using it like a system, let's chat.
