Most people pick a lane. I built a highway. I'm Jae and in the time it takes you to read this, I've already thought about three ways to make your business run better. I help businesses untangle operations, ship projects, and build brands that actually work — from the inside out. With 8+ years as a freelance business consultant and technical project manager, I've worked across healthcare, finance, hospitality, and creative industries. I bring the same strategic clarity to a $200K revenue recovery audit as I do to launching a brand from the ground up. What I've delivered: — $200,000 in recoverable revenue identified through a billing and operations audit at a skilled nursing facility — 100% staff adoption of new workflows at Rush University Medical Center through a full change management strategy — 35% reduction in audit preparation time through process redesign — Built and launched a full multi-channel brand (SJRH) including digital products, B2B sales strategy, and AI-powered content production. I work well with founders who need both strategic thinking and execution, operations leaders who need things documented and done right, and growing businesses that need project management with real accountability. My approach is direct, organized, and results focused. I don't just deliver documents — I deliver outcomes. Ready to work? Let's go.

I left Google in 2023 to take the plunge into entrepreneurship. In parallel, I consult on Upwork to keep my skills sharp and assist clients of all sizes through their AI and cloud journeys. I’m an experienced AI cloud architect trained in big tech, holding senior customer-facing architecture and engineering roles at both Microsoft and Google. As an expected component of my career, I’ve obtained expert-level certifications in both Google Cloud (GCP) and Microsoft Azure. I also hold an MBA from New York University’s Stern School of Business and believe that it's important for those in technical roles to understand how their solutions fit into an organization’s strategic business goals. If a cloud environment is built incorrectly, it will quickly become a net negative to a business and a drag on profitability. I’ve designed and implemented several production AI projects, including contributions to a highly regulated project a globally systemic important bank in New York. I’ve also deployed containerized AI applications and infrastructure using Kubernetes for multiple national retailers throughout the US. I am a strong advocate for leveraging and teaching best practices for successful AI deployments at scale including secure design principles principles to ensure security at all layers of infrastructure, and incorporating cost management and business KPIs into all of my work as the costs of AI climb. If you are starting or continuing your AI journey, I can advise you on the tradeoffs of your AI strategy, help you see around hidden corners, and answer questions that are imperative to get correct early to set up your organization for long-term success. In addition to AI expertise, I will bring you a strong network of talented designers, engineers, and product experts if your vision requires a cross-functional approach. ** AI Strategy ** Whether you’ve already started your AI journey or are embarking on a greenfield project, I will help you: - Choose the best AI vendor(s) and service(s) for your projects - Determine which projects are best suited for each AI ventor, and what should stay in your own data centers (if applicable) - Plan your AI project journey with you including enablement activities such as obtaining certifications and building essential team skills - Measure KPIs, build budgets with dashboards that can attribute costs back to departments correctly, and set attainable milestones for each step of your AI journey - Negotiate with AI providers for the best price-to-value ratio for each project you deploy ** AI Architecture ** After planning your AI strategy is complete, I can also help you architect your solutions. As a certified professional in both Google Cloud and Microsoft Azure, I will help you design resilient architectures that follow best practices from the ground up. This includes templated, repeatable processes and AI deployment pipelines that are built with security in mind from the beginning. If this sounds compelling to you and your organization, reach out to me for a consultation and we can get to work!
