Two training tracks
Hands-on, in-person sessions across Oakland and Genesee Counties. Bring your laptop and your business — you walk out with a real result. Run 1-on-1 or as a small group for your team or peer group.
Build (or rebuild) your business website using AI tools. By the end you have a working site and the skills to update it whenever you need to — without paying anyone.
Format: 1-on-1 or small group, in person
Bring: A laptop and your business details (logo, photos, copy)
Experience: None — if you can use email, you can do this
Beyond websites. Use AI to automate repetitive tasks, draft customer communications, build internal tools, and solve everyday business problems faster than you thought possible.
Format: 1-on-1 or small group, in person
Bring: A laptop and a list of tasks you wish were easier
Experience: Basic comfort with a computer
The promise
Every session ends with a real result on your laptop — a working draft, a tool you can use, or a process you can repeat. Not slides, not theory.
Tell me about your business and what you’re working on, and we’ll plan a session that fits — 1-on-1 or with your group.
My go-to tool is Cursor. It runs on your computer, works directly with your real files, and keeps everything portable — nothing trapped behind a login you can’t leave. That’s what makes it a good fit for the setup I teach: a real, file-based record of your business that your AI can actually read and build on.
But Cursor isn’t the only option. I’ll walk you through the alternatives — ChatGPT, Claude, GitHub Copilot, and others — so you understand the tradeoffs. Different tools fit different businesses. You pick what works for you, not what I want to sell you.
Whatever you choose, you own it. Your accounts, your files, your work. No lock-in, no mystery subscriptions you can’t leave.
I’ve built products at Ford and tech startups. I know what works and what doesn’t.
This isn’t theory. I use AI every day to build real websites and solve real business problems.
My goal is your independence. You leave with real skills and real confidence, not a dependency on me.
Common questions
What owners ask before signing up.
If you can use email, you can do this. The training is built for trades and service business owners who have never used AI before. We start from zero.
A real result on your laptop — either a working website or a working AI tool you built for your business — plus the confidence to keep using it on your own.
Cursor runs on your computer and works with your real files, so the AI can read your actual business and build on it over time. ChatGPT and Claude are great tools too — I’ll show you the tradeoffs and you pick what fits. Whatever you pick, you own it.
Either works. I run 1-on-1 sessions for owners who want focused time on their own business, and small group sessions for teams, partners, or peer groups (chambers, BNI, trade associations). Reach out and we’ll plan whichever fits.
Yes — please do. This isn’t a generic tutorial. We work on real things you bring with you, so you walk out with progress on something that actually matters.
The free 30-minute call is a short conversation to figure out whether what I do is a fit for your business and where to focus first. Training is paid, hands-on time where you actually build something on your own laptop. The free call helps you decide; training is the work.
Whether it’s 1-on-1 for you or a session for your team or peer group, send a note and we’ll plan something that fits.
