Hi there! I’m Carly,

I’m a 30-something woodworking, piano playing, neurodivergent woman with a lifelong habit of doing things differently.

Over the past 10+ years, I’ve worked at the intersection of product, operations, and engineering - translating messy, ambiguous problems into structured systems that scale. Increasingly, that’s meant not just implementing AI workflows, but deciding where and how AI should fundamentally reshape how teams operate.

My work tends to start upstream: identifying high-friction points in how decisions are made, how information flows, and where time is lost. From there, I design AI-enabled systems that reduce manual effort, improve signal quality, and create leverage across teams.

After running my own startup, I’ve spent a lot of time in the realities of execution - customer deployments, integrations, broken processes, and imperfect data. That experience shapes how I approach AI: not as a feature layer, but as infrastructure that changes how work actually gets done.

I’m especially interested in roles where AI is treated as a strategic lever—something that can reshape operating models, not just optimize tasks.

Interested in working together on your next project? Please reach out, I'd love to chat!

How I work

AI Transformation Strategy

  • Identify highest-leverage opportunities for AI across workflows and teams

  • Define where AI should (and shouldn’t) be applied

  • Translate business goals into system-level changes

Systems Architecture & Design

  • Design end-to-end AI-enabled workflows (not point solutions)

  • Structure data flows, decision layers, and human-in-the-loop systems

  • Balance automation with control, reliability, and usability

Implementation & Iteration

  • Build and deploy AI workflows, tools, and integrations

  • Rapid test → evaluate → refine loops

  • Own outcomes from concept through execution

Operational Impact

  • Reduce manual effort and operational drag

  • Improve speed and quality of decision-making

  • Enable teams to scale without proportional headcount
