Different industries. Different audiences. One philosophy underneath all of it.
I build businesses, software and intelligent systems that help people make better decisions, recover opportunities they were missing, and turn complicated processes into measurable results.
For more than 15 years I have worked where technology, training and operations meet. For the last five, that work has centered on AI. I help organizations adopt new tools faster and, more importantly, safely, clearly and in a way people keep using.
My flagship work through TechStack Consulting is enterprise AI adoption: a month-long, live Claude enablement program for more than 400 employees in a regulated environment, finishing at 97% completion with user confidence rising from 3.0 to 4.8. It became my Enterprise AI Adoption Framework™, built on five stages: Strategy and Alignment, Governance and Risk Management, Workforce Enablement, Workflow Integration, and Scale and Optimization.
The same pattern runs through everything I build. Retention IQ brings lapsed customers and patients back, so businesses recover revenue they already earned. LO Radar turns scattered borrower data into clear signals about who is ready to refinance, move or act. StraightAcre turns public records, builder demand and parcel checks into a plain answer on whether to buy or pass on a piece of land. RelationshipsIQ and my other product work apply the same intelligence to relationships and opportunities that are usually left to gut instinct.
As an author and artist, I do the same work in a different medium: taking something complex, human and hard to see clearly, and shaping it into something people can understand, feel and act on.
Technology should make complicated things easier to understand, easier to act on, and more valuable to the people using it. Not more dashboards. Not more noise. Not automation for its own sake. Clearer information, better decisions, and opportunities that were there all along, hidden in complexity.
Selected work, with the numbers wherever they exist.
Through TechStack Consulting I have worked with organizations putting AI tools to use, building employee training, raising adoption and setting up responsible-use practices. One engagement, a month-long live Claude program for a regulated enterprise, covered:
