KeyBuildsAI
I don’t sell AI hype.
I sell AI you can ship.
Full-stack engineer for 10+ years. I build with AI every day — and teach people to do the same.
The gate is intimidation. I burn the gate.
Anyone can learn AI. The gate is intimidation. I burn the gate — then teach you to walk through.
I’m Key.
I build with AI every day — then I teach the people around me to do the same.
Full-stack software engineer for 10+ years. Now I ship websites, automations, AI agents, and full business systems — and walk people through how I did it.
I work fluently across the major AI models — Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity— and the developer tools that wire them up: Cursor, Codex, Windsurf, Copilot, Zapier. For deeper builds: local models on Ollamaand Hugging Face, plus RAGpipelines wired through MCP servers.
Certified in Data AI Governance and as a Solutions AI Architect. Translation: I ship — with the guardrails that hold up at scale.
What I’m here for: AI conversion — moving people from “AI is intimidating” to “AI is the thing I shipped this weekend.” Authority isn’t loud. It’s a track record. I show mine — and help you build yours.
Builds happen here every day.
Numbers, not narratives.
The tools I work with every day.
I’m not loyal to one model or one IDE. I pick the right tool for the job — and show you how to do the same.

Four things I believe.
AI doesn't have to be the villain.
It works for you — but only if you learn to use it appropriately. Responsibly. With your eyes open.
AI buys back time.
The hour you save on a repetitive task is the hour you spend with family, with builders, with what matters.
Anyone can learn AI.
The gate is intimidation. I burn the gate — then teach you to walk through it without losing your nerve.
Authority isn't loud.
It's a track record. I show mine. Then I teach you to build yours, one shipped thing at a time.
