Good people.Better systems.Stronger businesses.
Good businesses, working better.
I get called in when a company has more information than it can use. The first decision is the one that matters: what to systematize, what to automate, and what to leave to a person. The build comes after, and it is the easier half.
M&A, healthcare, staffing, and creative services. I teach this at UC San Diego's Rady School, and I keep room for a few engagements at a time. If I'm booked, I'll tell you straight.
An embedded sprint inside your leadership team
Decide which workflows are worth automating and which are not, deploy the ones that are, and build the habits that keep them running after I leave.
A one-day leadership workshop
Ends with your use cases ranked and a 90-day plan your team actually owns.
How we'd work together
Decide
We map how work actually moves through your company, then rank it. Some of it is worth automating. Some of it is worth leaving alone. You get the reasoning, not just the list.
Deploy
I build the workflows that earned their place and put them in front of the people who will use them. Confidentiality, review gates, and audit trails are designed in, not bolted on.
Hand off
Your team runs it without me. That means training, documentation, and a cadence they keep. Every engagement is built to end.
Selected work
Products, demos, and the talks about them. Most of these are live, and you can open them.
ContraSight
Three-to-five-hundred-page donor records turned into cited, severity-ranked case reviews a clinician approves. Preserved as a working demo on fictional data.
Halfshade
Redaction that lets associates run deal documents through commercial AI tools without exposing client detail. Confidentiality is the specific reason most advisory firms stall on AI.
Demo Day, 2025
The winning pitch at UC San Diego's Basement Demo Day, posted by UC San Diego Innovation.
Mauralink
An assessment that shows a manager and a direct report how they are likely to work together, before the friction rather than after it. Research to a live platform in six months.
mytxt.dev
Point it at any documentation site and get back a standards-compliant llms.txt. 2,800+ sites scanned.
