Build with AI

I'm a first adopter of AI tools. I'm an investor and a startup founder with exclusive access to some of the earliest builders in the space. And I have a really bad sleeping habit and addiction to Twitter. All of that means that when you have a conversation with me about AI, I guarantee that we will bring you to an understanding at a foundational level about whatever you're trying to achieve and bring you to an advanced mastery that will last moving forward. Whether you want to... get better use out of chat applications, understand how to use agent tooling like Claude Code or Codex CLI, build your own agents with a framework like Mastra, understand whether a product like OpenClaw is just hype... or if you want to dig into your specific workflows, either in your personal life or for professional productivity, we can cover it all. Whenever I coach or teach about AI, I talk about all of our strategies and tactics being both portable and durable. Portable in that they don't require being tied down to any given tool but work as the tools change, and durable in that they're strategies and understanding that will last as models update and products evolve.

My goal is to help people learn how to build with AI - not just talk about it. At my current company, I was tasked with figuring out how AI can augment our operations so our people can deliver more value, faster. I mapped workflows across every department, identified where the manual lift was highest, and built and deployed AI agents to handle that work. It's now running. That process - going from basic AI chatbot tools to working AI agents across a real business - is exactly what I coach on. The professionals who learn to build with these tools now will have an enormous edge. And you don't need to be in a senior role or have a technical background to get started. You just need to know where to look and how to think about the problem. My coaching is for ambitious professionals who want to get ahead of the curve - whether you're looking to stand out in your current role, make yourself indispensable in a job search, or just figure out where to start. We'll identify the highest-impact opportunities in your world and get you from curious to actually building.

I coach mentees, product managers, and founders on the latest AI automation tools (Cursor, Zapier, n8n, vibe coding tools such as Figma Make, eval tools such as Anthropic). I’ve helped organizations and mentees save hundreds of hours a year using these tools to automate workflows, status updates, document creation, and backlogs. Expertise of how and when to apply to these to your daily workday as well as to your business can give you a significant advantage over the competition and help land $200k-$300k+ compensation roles in AI and product management. I use these tools in my principal product manager position today to run a $26B revenue stream at Nike to save several hours in daily admin tasks, to speed up the product development lifecycle with stakeholders, and to properly evaluate AI agents in real-time.
