Why teams bring me in
Many AI consultants have never been through an audit. Many compliance specialists still work at the old pace. I bring both. I spent 13 years at a bank, then several years in payments, and I worked on HIPAA-aligned Azure architecture for a US software company.
Today I use Claude Code every day to build pipelines, automate GitHub work and ship working applications. AI makes the first draft faster. Review, tests and quality gates decide what reaches production. That is how I work, and it is what I set up for clients.
