Tests green on my AI system
How I work

A rare combination, run on four rules.

Most people are an operator or a builder. The events industry is operationally mature but AI-immature. That gap is exactly where I work.

01

Proof, not claims

Every number on this page is real and verifiable. I would rather show a working system than describe one.

02

Operator who builds

I've spent a decade on the floor those systems must survive on, so what I build holds up live.

03

Shipped, not slideware

I translate frontier AI into deployed operational tools with measured results, not decks and intentions.

04

Best tool wins

Zero loyalty to any vendor. Each job goes to the model or method that actually does it best.

The record

From the event floor in 2013 to the ops desk today.

What I've actually built

Not slides. Systems that run.

A data-science foundation pushed all the way to production AI. Every figure below is repo-verified.

Flagship · Solo build in 28 days

Auto Pilot – Events Operating System

An AI operating system for an experiential-events company: specialist agents that run pricing, planning and operations end to end.

Seven specialist agents plus a director orchestrate 95 registered tools over an event-sourced Postgres + pgvector spine, fronted by a 23-page web app. A pricing model trained on 1,136 real price points cut estimation error by roughly two-thirds. Four cost modes from $0 to ~$300/month. In production usage since July 2026.
