20 years in. Back on my own.

Why I'm doing this

The honest answer is pretty simple. My wife stays home to raise our three boys, and as they get older, the bills keep getting bigger. Groceries, gas, shoes they outgrow by spring. Then inflation landed on top of all of it.

A lot of families around here know exactly what that feels like. So I'm doing what I know how to do: putting two decades of software work to use for the businesses in my own backyard, and taking on extra work to help close the gap.

That means I'm not a faceless agency in a city two hours away. I'm a dad in Tahlequah who answers his own phone, and I want your business to do well, because this is where my family lives too.

What 20 years taught me

In the private sector, I've built and maintained real software for real customers: the kind that has to work every day, not just in a demo. That experience matters more than ever now that AI tools are everywhere. Most of them are easy to sign up for and hard to make actually useful.

My job is to cut through that. I figure out where your business is losing time, find the tools that fit, set them up properly, and make sure you and your staff know how to use them. When something isn't a good fit for AI, I'll tell you that too.

I use this stuff myself

I don't just talk about AI. I use it to run my own side businesses and to build and look after sites for people around here, like Bill's Trash Service and Tahlequah Lawn Care. You can see those and a few of my own projects on the work page.

How I work

• Plain English. No jargon, no buzzwords, no 40-slide decks.
• Honest advice. If AI won't save you money, I'll say so before you spend a dime.
• Small and local. You deal with me directly, from the first coffee to the last fix.
• You own everything. Your accounts, your website, your data. If we ever part ways, it all stays with you.
• Careful with your data. Every client gets a written data plan that shows what tools touch your information.
