How I work
I listen first, then tell you what I actually think, in plain language, even when the answer is technical. Friends keep telling me it's a rare combo: a dev who can actually speak. I'll take it.
AI is rewriting how teams ship. I help companies figure out where it helps, where it bites, and what's worth building. No buzzword salad, no slide decks pretending to be strategy. I'm shipping AI myself at nanopixo, so the answers are concrete.
Code when code is the answer. None when it isn't. Direct in writing, direct in person.
Let's talk
Fifteen minutes is usually enough to know if there's a fit. If there isn't, you'll still leave with a clearer view of your problem.
