Areas of Focus
AI Systems
Whether you're looking to automate a repetitive task, solve a complex business problem, or simply explore what's possible with today's AI tools, I'm here to help. I prioritize using best-in-class, off-the-shelf tools when possible, but am also able to build custom lightweight software to enhance your workflows and generate content. Common projects include:
Custom AI chatbots powered by GPT-4 or Claude, trained on your company's internal knowledge, policies, or customer service data.
Internal training agents to help onboard new employees or act as always-available teammates for support and reference.
Data synthesis and automation, reducing manual entry, summarizing reports, or transforming raw data into actionable insights.
Content generation using large language models, diffusion systems, or video generation tools, whether for marketing or internal ops.
