I help teams put AI to work where it actually helps.
Every company has access to the same tools. The teams that are pulling ahead use AI to handle the routine work, so their people can spend more time on what only they can do.
In their words
Mark Nelson
Founder & Co-Director, Stanford Peace Innovation Lab
"Dylan worked with me to help rapid-prototype an AI tool for identifying and prioritizing potential multidisciplinary research collaborations. In a field where many consultants look good just because AI is improving so fast, Dylan built and delivered a working prototype so quickly we could see the real value he added, rather than just the speed of AI progress.
What set Dylan apart was his ability to hold the complexity of the research problems (matching collaborators across disciplines that don't usually talk to each other) while building something clean and functional. He didn't just execute my spec, he shaped the tool's logic in ways that made the output even more useful.
If you need someone who can take an ambitious, interdisciplinary idea and turn it into a working AI prototype before the energy leaves the room, Dylan is your person. Highest recommendation."

"Dylan provided two AI training sessions for our team and it was very apparent that Dylan has expertise in this field. He walked our team through AI basics to give our team a solid foundation to work off of. He was prepared, quick to answer questions in a thorough and clear manner, and gave us practical tools that each team member can use for their role. We would love to have Dylan back to do more training."

"I invited Dylan to give a guest lecture in the Department of History earlier this year. He spoke about AI in the workplace and the relevance of humanities training to how organizations adopt it. What followed was about forty-five minutes of discussion with the faculty. It's not often a guest lecture generates that kind of exchange. I've since found myself drawing on his perspective in how I approach AI at the university and how to apply it in my courses."

"We had a massively challenging project that involved turning hundreds of articles into short scripts. We had a feeling it was something AI could help with, but we didn't know where to start. Dylan not only made the entire process smoother, but suggested ways to cut down workload significantly without sacrificing the creative vision. Not sure if we would have finished the project without Dylan's AI help."

Working together
My engagements start with education: helping your team understand what AI can and can't do well. Next comes strategy: figuring out which tools fit which problems, and which to leave alone. Then I build the custom tools your team needs.
Most teams I work with already have AI consultants, currently or in the past. I'm comfortable being one voice among several.
About
I came up in operations, close enough to engineering to see what the tools could do, far enough to see what they couldn't. That gap is what pulled me in. I taught myself AI and moved into engineering, where I built custom pipelines, retrieval systems, and workflow tools. A Python-to-Blender pipeline for 3D content generation. A documentation system used in maritime operations.
What that work taught me: most organizations don't need someone to build them an AI product. They need someone to look at the work they're already doing and figure out which parts AI should be doing instead. That's the work I do now.
