Engineer, mentor, and your friendly guide to AI
I help everyday people, professionals, and founders make sense of AI, and no question is too basic. Most of my mentees started exactly where you are now.
Behind that is 25 years of engineering across banking, fintech, and enterprise. These days it's hands-on work building AI apps and running my own daily life on a personal AI assistant.
Whether you're a student, a working professional, a leader, or a founder, you'll get someone who's done the work and explains it in plain language.
The easiest way to get a feel for how I explain things: watch me build with AI, live. No edits, no script, mistakes and all.
A relaxed walk through the OpenAI platform and APIs, explained from scratch.
A full app built live, from empty folder to working AI chat on a phone.
A talk on bringing AI into your everyday life and work, in plain language.
