Real Help Using ChatGPT — No Fluff, No Overwhelm
I work with adults, students, and parents who want to use AI in ways that actually make life easier—whether that’s writing, planning, organizing, or thinking more clearly. I offer 1:1 support, custom resources, and practical guidance based on your real needs. Not just a library of prompts.
I bring 20 years of experience in higher education, including advising students, teaching incoming freshmen, creating resources, and helping people explore career paths. I know how to break things down in a way that makes sense and matches how people actually think and work. My goal is to make AI feel usable, not overwhelming.
