I design practical AI systems that help individuals and organizations organize knowledge, improve processes, develop professional resources, and put artificial intelligence to work on real business problems.
Five kinds of work, each backed by projects you can look at.
Structured reference material and standing instructions that let an AI assistant work from your information, your preferences, and your established processes.
ExamplePersonal AI Operating System
Repeatable procedures for research, communication, sales, marketing, operations, and decision support, written so a team and its AI tools follow the same steps.
Manuals, procedures, diagrams, and training programs built from complex technical source material, with qualified review before anything is published.
Product concepts, technical illustrations, brand standards, and presentation systems, with conceptual work clearly separated from engineered designs.
Practical training and advice for professionals and teams who want to use AI on the work in front of them this week.
Systems, manuals, designs, and training material. Some projects are finished and some are in progress, and each one says which.
I've spent most of my professional life building business relationships, explaining complicated ideas, improving processes, and helping organizations solve practical problems. Artificial intelligence gives me another set of tools for that same work.
What interests me is building systems that preserve knowledge, support good judgment, and help people get more out of the experience they already have. Below is the structure I use for my own work. Select any part of it to see how it fits.

A clever prompt helps once. Context that persists, written instructions, and repeatable workflows help every time.
Writing & Communication
How personal style, examples, instructions, and editorial standards can be organized into something an assistant can follow.
Design & Production
What it takes to turn dense technical information into manuals and training a working technician will actually use.
I write and speak about business, technology, leadership, communication, and the practical use of artificial intelligence. My wife Danielle and I wrote Guardrail Parenting, published in October 2026.
Whether you're exploring AI for your organization, building a knowledge system, creating training resources, or looking for a speaker, I'd welcome a conversation.
