What kinds of businesses do you work with?
I've built for property management, insurance, higher education, workforce technology, sales tech, and retail operations. The common thread isn't the industry — it's a business that's outgrown manual processes and needs its systems to do more of the work.
What does "AI integration" actually mean here?
Connecting an AI platform to the systems your business already runs on, so it can read real data and act — not just answer questions. I build MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers, the open standard for wiring AI to business software. In production today: an AI platform connected to a property-management system for automated data access and document workflows.
Do you build the software yourself?
Yes — that's the difference. I'm an analyst who writes production code (.NET/C#, JavaScript, SQL, REST APIs), so requirements don't get lost in translation between the person who understood the problem and the person who built the solution. For larger builds, I've also recruited and managed engineering teams through full project lifecycles.
How long does a typical engagement take?
A focused process or data analysis runs 2–4 weeks. Internal tools and automations often ship in weeks, not months. Requirements packages and integrations vary with scope, but I structure everything in phases so you see working output early — never a big-bang reveal at the end.
How do you price your work?
Fixed-fee for defined scopes like audits, analyses, and requirements packages, so there are no surprises. Ongoing development and fractional BSA work runs on a monthly retainer. Every proposal spells out scope, deliverables, and timeline before anything is signed.
How do we get started?
A simple conversation. You don't need requirements or a project plan — just describe what's slow, manual, or error-prone. I'll ask the right questions on a free 30-minute call and suggest next steps you can act on either way.
