Overview

Who I Am

I'm Drew—finance-trained builder. I help Calgary businesses automate support, streamline operations, and surface the numbers that matter. Bias: small, measurable pilots your team can own after handoff.

How I Work

Start small. Define success in simple terms. Set up quick wins with safe defaults. Keep humans in the loop. Leave easy instructions so you can run it without me.

Background

Calgary-based solo consultancy focused on small, practical AI projects your team can own. Privacy‑minded and optimized for fast time‑to‑value.

What We Measure in Pilots (Targets)

  • 📊
