How I work, and
where I've done it.

I run an information technology consultancy and keep institutional IT systems running. Both jobs taught me the same things about work.

About

Where technology meets customer experience

For over a decade and a half, I have worked at the intersection of technology and customer experience, helping businesses leverage innovation to create seamless, intuitive, and rewarding interactions for their guests. My background in system administration, IT infrastructure, and digital transformation—particularly within the hospitality and customer service industries—has given me a deep appreciation for how emerging technologies can redefine convenience, personalization, and engagement.

I am passionate about the role of AI, automation, and next-generation productivity tools in enhancing guest experiences and leisure activities. From intelligent booking systems that anticipate customer needs to AI-driven personalization that elevates service standards, I believe technology should make every interaction smoother, more efficient, and more enjoyable. The best innovations aren’t just about operational efficiency—they empower businesses to exceed expectations and create memorable experiences for their guests.

Philosophy

What I believe about work

01

Small teams, amplified

A few capable people working alongside AI can do what used to take a department. I call the shift molecularization, and I organize my own work around it.

02

Automate what repeats

If I have done a task by hand twice, the third time it becomes a playbook or a flow. People should spend their hours on judgment, not on repetition.

03

Build within your means

Bootstrapping forces clear priorities. I start with the tools already paid for, prove the idea works, and only then spend on more.
