About Me

A little about myself and what drives me

AI Workflow & Automation Specialist

Hi, I’m Mike. I design AI-assisted workflows, automation systems, and operational tools that help organizations reduce manual work, improve coordination, and create better user experiences.

My background spans higher education, academic libraries, technical training, and customer-facing operational environments. Over the years, I’ve developed instructional resources, digital learning systems, research support tools, and workflow processes focused on accessibility, usability, and practical problem-solving.

More recently, I’ve focused on building AI-powered workflow systems using tools such as Make, Zapier, Airtable, OpenAI, and low-code development platforms. My work includes intake automations, AI-assisted support systems, operational dashboards, and rapid prototypes designed to streamline repetitive tasks and improve day-to-day workflows.

What interests me most is practical AI implementation — using AI thoughtfully to solve operational problems, support learning, improve communication, and make systems easier for people to use.

I’ve had the chance to work with Michael on multiple projects, and he brings a mix of knowledge, thoughtfulness, and clear communication every time. His experience in property maintenance and the trades shows in the way he adapts quickly and delivers dependable, high-quality work.

  • William Rieth, Bavarian Mechanical

Michael’s superior writing skills, experience in the classroom and technology skill set have been applicable and invaluable to several critical academic support functions. He is the consummate “team player” and displays a friendly, but professional manner at all times.

  • Grant Wilinski, Atlantic Cape Community College Library

Mike served as an excellent writing tutor for us at the Rutgers-Camden learning center. He was able to very easily work with our students to help organize their papers and strengthen their arguments.

  • Robert Ciervo, Rutgers-Camden Learning Center

His skill in keeping the meetings focused was impressive, and he brought new ideas to the table at each session. He was eager to share knowledge he gained either in school or from his own experiences with designing successful library programs.
