Technology Should Work for You–Not Replace You

I help small healthcare and logistics businesses find the tedious tasks that don’t need human judgment–and build practical tools to handle them, so your team can focus on the work that actually matters.

A note about AI and automation:

There’s a lot of hype right now. Headlines about AI replacing jobs. Consultants pushing technology for technology’s sake.

That’s not what this is.

I believe technology should amplify what makes your business valuable–not try to replace it. The personal relationships you’ve built, the expertise you’ve developed, the judgment calls only you can make–those aren’t going anywhere.

What can change: the repetitive busywork that eats up your day. The data entry. The status updates. The reports that someone builds from scratch every week.

My approach is simple: automate the tedious stuff so your team can do more of the meaningful stuff.

Your Team’s Time Is Being Wasted on Work That Doesn’t Require Their Expertise

You’ve probably heard that “AI can help your business.” But when you’re running a healthcare practice or logistics operation, you don’t have time to separate the hype from what’s actually useful.

Meanwhile, your team is stuck doing work that doesn’t require their skills:

  • Manually entering the same data into multiple systems
  • Spending hours on reports that should take minutes
  • Answering the same questions over and over
  • Wrestling with scheduling puzzles every single week

None of this requires human judgment. It’s just busywork that’s built up over time because the tools to handle it weren’t available–or weren’t affordable.

That’s changed. The question is: which tools actually make sense for YOUR business?

Practical Technology, Not Shiny Objects

I spent years building complex software systems for large companies. Data integrations. Workflow tools. Custom applications that transformed how teams operate.

Now I bring that same expertise to small businesses–because the practical tools that used to cost hundreds of thousands of dollars are finally accessible to everyone.

Here’s how I’m different:

I don’t push technology. I start by understanding your operations, then identify where simple tools can take work off your team’s plate. Sometimes the answer is a $50/month software you’ve never heard of. Sometimes it’s a custom solution. Sometimes it’s “you’re actually fine–don’t change anything.”

You stay in control. You make the decisions. I just help you see the options.

Built for Healthcare & Logistics Operations

Healthcare Practices & Clinics

If your team spends more time on paperwork than patients, there’s probably a better way.

Common opportunities:

  • Streamlining patient intake (less re-typing, fewer errors)
  • Simplifying insurance verification workflows
  • Reducing scheduling headaches
  • Getting data out of your EMR without hours of Excel work
  • Automating routine patient communications

Your staff’s expertise is in patient care–not data entry. Let’s keep it that way.

Logistics & Fulfillment Operations

If manual processes are limiting your ability to grow, practical tools can help.

Common opportunities:

  • Streamlining order processing from multiple sources
  • Simplifying dispatch and route planning
  • Getting real visibility into inventory
  • Reducing “where’s my order?” calls
  • Building reports that update themselves

Your team’s expertise is in moving product and serving customers–not copying data between spreadsheets.

Simple Process, No Pressure

Start with a free 3-minute self-assessment. You'll identify which areas of your operation have the most room for improvement--and whether it's worth a conversation. No sales pitch. No obligation. Just clarity on where you stand.

2. Discovery Conversation

If the checklist suggests opportunities, we'll have a 30-minute call to dig deeper. I'll learn how your operation actually works, and you'll leave with specific ideas--whether or not we work together.

3. Focused Implementation

For the right opportunities, I build practical solutions in 2-4 week sprints. One improvement at a time, so you see results without overwhelming your team. You're involved at every step.

Real Results for Real Businesses

“Our scheduling coordinator used to spend 4 hours every Monday building the week’s schedule. Now she generates a draft in minutes–and spends that time on patient relationships instead. The tool handles the tedious part; she still makes all the final decisions.”

— Home Health Agency, 12 employees
Result: 70% reduction in scheduling time, with the coordinator still in full control

“We were drowning in repetitive customer questions. The new system handles the routine stuff automatically, and our team focuses on the calls that actually need a human touch. Nobody lost their job–they just stopped doing work that was burning them out.”

— Professional Services Firm
Result: Handled 3x inquiry volume without adding staff

“We had data scattered across five different systems. Now it’s connected, and leadership can see what’s happening without asking someone to spend a day building a report. Our analyst went from report monkey to actually analyzing–which is what we hired her for.”

— Behavioral Health Clinic
Result: Real-time visibility with staff doing more valuable work
