I help people I actually know use AI to grow their business — and I can tell what genuinely helps from what is just hype.

For over two decades I built the software behind other companies' growth. For the last two years I've used AI tools daily — across marketing, research, contracts, and the technical work itself — long enough to know the difference between a real advantage and a shiny distraction.

Now I bring both to friends and small businesses in my own community: I look at how you show up online, find what's quietly costing you customers, and show you what's worth fixing first — often with AI doing the heavy lifting.

The best way to see if I can help is a quick conversation. Twenty minutes, no pitch — I'll walk you through what I'm seeing and where I'd start.

If this is not for you, but you know someone it'd help? Pass it along — that's how I meet most of the businesses I work with.

Worth understanding

AI is changing how people find local businesses — more and more they ask ChatGPT or Google's AI instead of scrolling links, and you want to be in that answer. I put together a short primer on what's shifting and how to stay visible: SEO vs GEO — a 2-minute read.
