One-on-one consults.

For people who read something I said and want the longer version.

What we can do

• Threat model your personal setup, small team, product, workflow, or weird idea.
• Make your AI workflow less fragile, less embarrassing, and less dependent on vibes.
• Use state-of-the-art AI tools to set up a life management system: your own personal Jarvis, except cheaper, faster, and way smarter. Gain back time and offload the small stuff.
• Get from "I need a specific app" to a working Software 3.0 setup: natural-English prompts, the right tools installed, and the domain/VPS/background plumbing handled.
• Turn "I should learn Linux/security" into a map you can actually follow.
• Review a cloud box, homelab, prompt chain, agent workflow, opsec habit, or launch plan.
• Build a private learning path around your exact situation.

Software 3.0

Software is becoming something you can direct in English instead of something you have to wait for a team to spec, quote, and eventually ship.

I can help you set up the boring-but-critical layer underneath that: repo, editor, AI coding tools, terminal, deployment path, domain, VPS, backups, and the guardrails that keep an experiment from turning into a mess.

The goal is simple: get you or your company to the prompting part faster, with enough infrastructure in place that the app you build can actually run.
