How I can help

Start with the business problem. Build the right solution.

Not every problem needs AI. The first step is understanding the process with your team, identifying where time and effort are being lost, and choosing an approach that fits your tools, people, and requirements.

Measured impact

Automation that delivers measurable results.

Medical billing

Every bill arrives in a different format. Your file should not.

Billing information can arrive as faxes, spreadsheets, PDFs, emails, and handwritten notes. This illustrative demo shows how information from different formats can be extracted and organized into a consistent structure.

GRC automation

AI that does the slow parts of compliance work.

These case studies come from hands-on AI automation work inside a cybersecurity GRC software company. High-effort analyst workflows were identified, then Python- and LLM-powered tools were independently designed, built, and maintained to improve speed, consistency, and scale. The work included retrieval, similarity and confidence scoring, structured generation, and production implementation.

Security & AI

Adopt AI without compromising security.

AI adoption creates new opportunities and new risks. Helping businesses assess how AI fits into their operations, choose appropriate tools, and build practical safeguards around data, access, vendors, and human oversight.

Risks to consider when adopting AI

What companies should do

  1. Set clear rules and know your tools

    Publish a short AI acceptable-use policy. Keep an inventory of approved tools, and give people a good approved option so they don’t go looking for one.

  2. Decide what data may go where

    Classify data, and say plainly which kinds may never go into which tools. Remove names, numbers, and secrets before using AI whenever possible.

  3. Vet vendors before you rely on them

    Ask about data retention, whether your data trains their models, where it is stored, and what contract protections exist.

  4. Limit access, keep a human in the loop, and keep logs

    Give AI tools the least access they need. Have a person review anything important. Log usage so you can investigate when something goes wrong.

  5. Train your people

    Rules only work if people understand them. Short, practical, regular training does more than a policy nobody reads. See the training.

Use the frameworks that already exist. NIST AI Risk Management Framework, ISO/IEC 42001 (AI management systems), and the OWASP Top 10 for LLM Applications are well-known starting points.

Compliance doesn’t pause for AI

The rules you already follow still apply when the data goes into an AI tool.

HIPAA (health information, US)

Protected health information needs safeguards wherever it goes. A vendor that handles it generally needs a business associate agreement, and access should follow the minimum-necessary idea. Pasting patient notes into a consumer chatbot is a classic way to get this wrong.

GDPR (personal data, EU/UK)

Principles such as data minimization, purpose limits, and rules on transferring data abroad apply to AI use. High-risk processing may need a data protection impact assessment, and there are rules on decisions made purely by automated means.

ISO 27001 (information security)

Covers how you manage security risks, including suppliers. AI vendors belong in that supplier and risk process like any other.

EU AI Act and others

New AI-specific laws are arriving with risk-based obligations. Which ones apply depends on where you operate and what the AI is used for.

General information only, not legal advice. Ask your legal counsel about your own obligations.

Planning to introduce AI into your business?

Review the use case, the data involved, and the safeguards needed to make adoption practical and responsible.

Turning complex work into smarter ways of working.

Portrait

I start by understanding the business.

Good automation starts with understanding the problem, not choosing a tool.

My background is in cybersecurity consulting, GRC, and business operations. I’ve worked directly with business owners, executives, and technical teams to understand how their organizations operate, identify risks and inefficiencies, and turn complex requirements into practical solutions.

I’ve helped approximately 15–20 organizations build and improve their security programs, working across ISO 27001, HIPAA, GDPR, SOC 2, and more than 50 frameworks and regulations.

That experience taught me something important: every business has its own processes, challenges, and priorities. Solutions need to fit the organization, not the other way around.

From identifying problems to building solutions.

At a cybersecurity GRC startup, I moved beyond using existing tools and began building automation from the ground up.

I identified time-consuming workflows, designed solutions, and independently developed Python- and LLM-powered tools to make complex work faster and more scalable. The results included:

  • Control mapping: Reduced a process that took approximately two weeks to about one hour, with over 95% acceptance on expert review.
  • Questionnaire creation: Reduced turnaround from 2–4 weeks to 1–3 days, generating nearly 50 regulatory questionnaires.
  • Operational efficiency: Reduced manual analyst hours by over 70%.
  • Production implementation: Built a risk-to-control recommendation tool that became part of the company’s commercial GRC platform.

These weren’t just experiments or demonstrations. They were tools designed around real workflows and used to deliver measurable results.

Explore my automation projects

Technology is only part of the solution.

I work across AI-powered automation, Python development, APIs, LLMs, and other technologies, but the technology itself is never the starting point.

I want to understand what your team is doing today, where time and resources are being lost, what needs to improve, and what a successful solution would actually look like.

Sometimes that means building an AI-powered workflow. Sometimes it’s a simpler automation that doesn’t need AI at all. And sometimes the biggest opportunity is improving an existing process before automating it.

My cybersecurity and GRC background also means I approach implementation with security, privacy, reliability, and compliance in mind from the beginning.

Working together.

I bring a combination of business understanding, technical implementation, and security expertise. I can work with you to:

  • Identify opportunities to automate repetitive or inefficient processes.
  • Design and build custom AI and non-AI automation solutions.
  • Integrate tools and systems into your existing workflows.
  • Help your team understand and adopt AI effectively.
  • Evaluate solutions with security, privacy, and business requirements in mind.

I’m particularly interested in working with businesses that want to make practical use of automation but need someone who can bridge the gap between understanding the business problem and actually building the solution.

I enjoy figuring out how things work, finding a better way to do them, and turning that idea into something useful. That’s the work I want to do.
