I help companies stop blaming their software for problems that started long before the software showed up.

I'm a business operations consultant who uses ERP and AI as tools — not an ERP guy who dabbles in business. The difference matters; most system rollouts go sideways because nobody did the foundational work on people and processes first. I've spent my career in that gap — harmonizing operations, aligning incentives, and making sure the technology actually serves the strategy instead of the other way around.

Python — automation, tooling, and AI/LLM projects (solving real ops problems, not building demos)

Shell/Bash — because some things just need a script and a cron job

MERN Stack — MongoDB, Express.js, React.js, Node.js for full-stack work

I wrote my first lines of code in Atari BASIC on an Atari XEGS as a kid. From there it was VB, ASP, C#, fat-client/n-tier architectures with Oracle and SQL Server backends — the kind of work where you learn that a system is only as good as the process feeding it. That lesson stuck.

I teach meditation and yoga, guide outdoor trips in New Hampshire, and have a pattern I didn't notice until it was obvious — I learn something deeply, then I teach it. Kenpo, shooting, personal defense, Linux, yoga. My goal as a consultant is the same: teach them how to fish and leave.
