About

Useful systems for companies that work across borders

Across my businesses I build AI “employees” - supervised AI agents that run and optimize real operations: office email and quoting, accounting and payment reconciliation, management reporting, and document workflows.

I lead the Translation Agency of Ontario Group, a Canadian translation company operating across multiple provinces and providing certified translations accepted by government institutions and businesses. I am also building ExpirySafe, a SaaS platform that uses AI to assess document compliance risk and track employee documents so companies avoid problems caused by expired visas, work permits, passports, and certifications.

Each system is proven on a live, multi-office company before it becomes a repeatable product or service.

AI implementation

AI as an operating layer, not scattered tools

I work with companies that want more than isolated AI features. The focus is redesigning operations around AI employees, structured workflows, management visibility, and supervised execution.

AI employees & automation

AI agents that run office, accounting, management, and document workflows.

Remote projects

Smaller advisory and automation projects are delivered online by me and my team.

On-site integration

Larger operational integrations delivered on-site in the GCC, Canada, the United States, and Europe.

Best fit

Companies with complex operations, document-heavy workflows, compliance demands, or cross-border execution.

Outcome: less manual coordination, stronger operational control, and a business that scales with fewer bottlenecks.
