Hire the Best Network Administrators in North Carolina

Hi, I’m Kevin. I help healthcare organizations and businesses fix their toughest IT issues — whether it's a SQL Server running slow, an Azure migration that needs cleanup, or automating repetitive tasks with PowerShell scripts. I've been doing this for over 25 years, 15 in healthcare, and still love diving into tricky problems and getting systems humming again. I can also work with the many uses of Python scripting to do just about anything. ETL as well.

I'm an IT Professional with over 15 years of experience specializing in System Administration and IT Consulting. I'm working with enterprise clients – managing their current infrastructure, performing advanced troubleshooting, and improving/implementing new technologies. I have experience with both VMware and Microsoft virtualization, Networking, and Cloud Services like Microsoft Office 365.

I am a seasoned cybersecurity professional with experience in network security, endpoint security, security architecture, DevSecOps, incident response and analysis, and application security. I have a very solid background in information technology. I am passionate about cybersecurity, without it, privacy does not exist for digital citizens. I am a veteran of the US Army, I served on active duty for ten years and deployed to both Afghanistan and Iraq.

I help businesses turn AI from a cool idea into a working business workflow. A lot of teams know AI can help, but they are not sure where to start, what to automate, what to document, or how to avoid building something that sounds impressive but does not actually fit the way people work. That is where I help. My work sits at the intersection of AI enablement, workflow design, prompt architecture, automation, internal knowledge systems, and practical agent workflows. I help teams look at the real process first, find the friction points, and then design AI-supported workflows that are useful, repeatable, and understandable. I can help with: * AI workflow design for sales, marketing, support, operations, and internal knowledge * Prompt and instruction-set development for ChatGPT, Claude, Custom GPTs, and agent-style workflows * Custom GPTs, AI assistants, chatbot concepts, RAG-style retrieval, and knowledge workflows * Task inventory, process mapping, AI readiness reviews, and automation opportunity scoring * Documentation, SOPs, training guides, prompt libraries, and enablement content * Human-in-the-loop workflow design, review steps, guardrails, and approval processes * API-connected AI workflow concepts, MCP/server integration planning, and lightweight prototypes My background includes 20+ years in sales engineering, technical enablement, customer education, workflow design, support systems, and AI adoption. I have built AI chatbot agents, training assistants, knowledge workflows, MCP-connected prototypes, RAG-style systems, and practical AI enablement programs for business users. I also work with agent orchestration frameworks such as OpenClaw and Hermes, using them to think through how AI agents, business tools, approval steps, and human-in-the-loop workflows can operate together in the real world. I am not here to sell AI magic or force a tool into your business just because it is trendy. I help you understand the work, clean up the process, design the right AI support, and build operating habits your team can actually use. If your team is saying, “We know AI can help, but we do not know where to start,” that is exactly where I can help.
