What I build

Google Workspace Migrations

Hands-off migrations from Microsoft 365, cPanel IMAP, personal Gmail, and Yahoo. Multi-domain estates, enterprise provisioning, DNS cutover, delta sync, and post-cutover support.

Shared Drive Blueprints

Workspace Admin, DNS & Security

Senior audits of admin console, OU structure, security baselines, and license usage. MX/SPF/DKIM/DMARC for deliverability. Vault retention, Drive sharing exposure, and third-party app permission reviews.

AI / LLM Integration Secondary

Gemini and Claude APIs, RAG pipelines with ChromaDB, autonomous agents in Node.js and Python, and MCP servers. Applied to internal automation and content generation.

Training & L&D Secondary

Curriculum design (ADDIE/Bloom's), instructor-led delivery, onboarding programs, and Google AI tool training for Gemini, NotebookLM, and Workspace Studio.
