Selected work
Business outcomes, then the build.
Three case studies selected for measurable impact, practical AI, and production judgment.
Reporting Automation
Cut a recurring week-long reporting process by more than 60%, returning roughly three analyst-days each month. The maintainable pipeline uses Excel, Power Query, macros, and PivotTables.

Turn operational drag into dependable systems.
I work from the business bottleneck outward: define the decision, design the workflow, then use the simplest technology that can carry it reliably.
AI agents & assistants
Guide Claude and Codex to create assistants with Microsoft Copilot Studio and LLM APIs, then review and validate the result against the business need. One internal workflow reviews large SQL codebases and explains proposed corrections before release.

Guide and validate the conversion of manual reporting into automated pipelines with Power Query, macros, and PivotTables. Cut a recurring week-long reporting process by more than 60%, returning roughly three analyst-days each month.

The through line
Business context guides the build.
My path runs through finance, healthcare implementation, field project management, and business intelligence. That is why I start with the operating problem and choose a model only when it fits.

I also co-founded a web and AI-workflow studio to stay close to client delivery and the realities of running a small business.
