Background

Distilling AI as an Asset

Helping companies and government entities transform internal tools and processes into organization-wide AI assets—without the need for dedicated software development teams.

Many organizations treat AI as a buzzword rather than a practical asset. Companies and government entities often assume they need large software teams or complex infrastructures to benefit from AI, but that’s not the case. I help organizations understand how to use AI to transform their existing internal tools and processes into scalable, organization-wide assets without requiring a dedicated software development team.

By embedding AI into workflows, reporting systems, decision-making processes, and service delivery, I show leaders how to unlock hidden value and efficiency across departments. This approach creates long-term organizational assets: knowledge systems that adapt, scale, and provide lasting advantages in productivity, security, and strategy.

My work is centered on making AI practical, accessible, and directly tied to outcomes. Whether it’s a mid-size company looking to increase operational efficiency or a government entity aiming to modernize services, my goal is to ensure AI becomes a trusted, usable asset—supporting missions, reducing costs, and building confidence in data-driven decisions.

My AI as an Asset (AAAA) Pitch:

  • The Problem You Face — Without meaningful AI integration, organizations risk falling behind quickly. Yet leaders remain unsure how AI investments will pan out amid hype and uncertainty. I help identify one niche area where AI can deliver immediate 10x–100x improvements, providing clarity and early wins.
  • Hidden Tools, Hidden Risks — Nearly every company or government entity has smart employees who build internal tools—ranging from spreadsheets to scripts to complex software—to automate and optimize their work. These tools often remain fragile hacks with edge case issues, designed only for personal use. When these employees leave, their knowledge and the productivity embedded in those tools are lost.
  • Turning Hacks into Assets — I teach non-software engineering teams how to rebuild and extend these internal tools so they can function across the organization, across platforms, and without needing to hire dedicated or consultant software engineers. This ensures continuity, scalability, and usability.
  • Lasting Organizational Value — The tools are no longer disposable hacks—they become durable organizational assets. The employees who created them become recognized contributors, but their departure will not disrupt operations or stall innovation. The knowledge they embedded stays with the organization, strengthening resilience and productivity.

Background

70K Hours of Tech

Investing in foundational knowledge pays off for a long time, though many avoid it by taking comfort in shortcuts that offer tangible results faster.

I have a simple methodology for learning new technology: know a new tech well enough to explain it to the general public, who may need more skill sets, time, or resources for an in-depth learning process. This has led me to write books introducing tech from a very early stage of my professional career.

I wrote my first book at age 26 on Perl programming for web development called The Common Gateway Interface (CGI) Primer Plus in the mid-90s. Since then, I have written several more books on web programming, Linux operating systems, security, optimization, and related topics.

Since the Web's early days, I have invested considerable time in web development using open-source platforms like Linux, Apache, PHP, MySQL, and Perl. This has led to the building of multiple companies in web application development. My current company, EVOKNOW, Inc., was established in 2002. It focuses on mid-size enterprises, providing web-stack-based business process management and operations for multinational companies across continents.
