Go Beyond A Glorified Google Search.
Actually Learn to Use AI.
Most AI training teaches you how to type into a chat box. That's not the job. Real leverage comes from knowing how to wire these tools into how you already work — and build things that didn't exist before. One-on-one coaching or team workshops, fully customized to your world.
Most People Use AI Like A Slightly Better Search Bar.
They ask it a question. It gives them an answer. They copy, paste, and move on. That's not the job. That's the demo.
The people pulling ahead aren't the ones typing better prompts. They're the ones who've wired AI into how they actually work — automating the repetitive parts of their day, running research in minutes instead of hours, and building custom tools their competitors still think require a dev team.
This is training for that. No hype, no sales pitch, no theoretical frameworks. Just an experienced builder, sitting next to you or your team, showing you exactly how to use these tools on the real problems in front of you.
Two Ways to Work Together

For individuals who want to get good, fast.

- Recorded so you can rewatch anything
Teams & Businesses
For leadership, departments, or entire companies.
- Custom workshop designed around your team's actual work
- Role-specific tracks (ops, sales, marketing, leadership, etc.)
- In-person or Zoom, half-day or multi-day formats
- Playbooks, prompts, and tools your team keeps
- Optional ongoing retainer for continued support
What We Can Cover
Every engagement is custom. Pick one topic and go deep, or sequence several into a program. If what you need isn't on the list, we'll build it.
AI Fundamentals, Done Right
How today’s models actually work in plain English. Where they shine, where they fail, and why most people are stuck at 5% of what’s possible.
Beyond the Chatbot
Move from “asking AI questions” to AI that drafts, analyzes, schedules, and executes. Prompt design, context, and systems thinking.
Agentic AI & Automation
What agents are, how they work, and how to put them to work. Automate the repetitive parts of your day so you can focus on the work only you can do.
AI for Operations
Email, calendars, CRMs, reporting, internal SOPs. Practical wiring that saves hours a week — without breaking what’s already working.
AI for Content & Marketing
Writing, research, campaigns, brand voice, visuals, and video. Keep the judgment human, let AI do the heavy lifting.
AI for Analysis & Decisions
Turn spreadsheets, transcripts, and messy data into clear answers. Competitive research, strategy, forecasting, and document review.
Vibe Coding & Building Tools
Ship real software without a dev team. Build the custom tools your business needs — dashboards, internal apps, AI assistants.
Voice, Image & Video AI
Text-to-speech, voice clones, image generation, and full video production pipelines. The creative stack most people don’t know exists yet.
Custom AI for Your Team
Build an assistant that knows your business, your clients, and your playbook. Turn tribal knowledge into a tool your whole team can use.
AI Strategy for Leaders
Where to invest, what to ignore, how to protect what matters. A realistic roadmap for operators who can’t afford to bet wrong.
AI Ethics, Risk & Governance
Privacy, IP, hallucination, and the things that get people in trouble. How to move fast without creating a mess your lawyer has to clean up.
Your Custom Topic
Have something specific in mind? Bring the problem. We’ll build the training around it.
How It Works
Discovery Call
A short, free call to understand your work, your team, and what you actually want to be able to do when we’re done.
Custom Curriculum
You get a written scope: topics, format, duration, and cost. No boilerplate decks. Every agenda is built for you.
Live Sessions
Hands-on work using your tools, your data, your real problems. In person in Calgary or over Zoom anywhere.
Playbook & Follow-Through
You keep the prompts, tools, and systems we build. Optional ongoing support so momentum doesn’t die when the session ends.
This Is For You If…
- You’ve been using ChatGPT casually and know there’s a whole layer of leverage you’re missing
- You run a team and you’re watching the gap between early adopters and everyone else widen
- You want someone to sit with you and your real work, not teach abstract concepts
- You’d rather learn from a builder who ships real systems than a consultant reading slides
- You want a clear, customized plan — not another $29 course you’ll never finish
