Automation
Turning repeatable manual work into structured workflows using Python, APIs, AI tools, validation, and exception handling.
AI Operations · Automation · Systems Analysis
I build systems that turn ambiguous problems into repeatable workflows.
I work across AI-assisted automation, Python, APIs, data workflows, monitoring, and technical operations. My background combines hands-on systems work with safety-critical operating experience in logistics and rail.
Focus
Where I create the most value
Systems analysis
Breaking down unclear operational problems, tracing dependencies, identifying failure points, and designing practical paths forward.
Technical operations
Working where software, process, real-time decisions, documentation, and operational reliability meet.
