I solve tech problems that don't have obvious solutions. I work in the land of "where do we even start," "I have this idea but I don't know what to do with it," and more commonly the past few years "I have this plan from an AI, will it work, how do I actually build it?" If you've had those experiences, send me a message.
In the past 15 years I've solved data problems, automation problems, pipeline problems, scaling problems. I've solved government databases like EDGAR or SBA being insufficient, I've solved non-profit workflows being inefficient. I've solved "what kind of orchid is this?" and "how many people are watching our content across 4 social media platforms?"
I can help you ideate on why a solution is good and how it scales, pitfalls to avoid, caveats, tradeoffs. I can be a stand-in CTO who makes tech decisions for a special project. I can solve a single piece of your pipeline or manifest the entire idea into something functional, measurable, and scalable.
In 15 years I've wired up thousands of API integrations, automations, and data pipelines. I've been using AI the past few years where it makes sense and keeping the human in the loop where it doesn't. I can help you figure that out too for your business or idea.
