Posted from San Francisco
I run a health care consulting practice and build software for the people who make Medi‑Cal work. This is the personal side, where I show the work.
Notes from the bench, longer writing, and what’s on the speakers.
Log
Bought an Eight Sleep Pod 6. Running a one-month experiment with it.
Writing
Your next AI investment should not be a tool. It should be a person
Health leaders are eager to buy AI. The better investment is someone who understands operations, equipped with AI tools.
Projects
Medicaid Insights
Reads every Medi‑Cal plan’s board packets and turns them into a searchable record of what plans are deciding.
Second Pass
Edit text and images directly in an HTML page and save them back to the file, with Codex beside you for bigger changes.
Kit
A small crew of AI agents on two Mac minis that run my morning brief, inbox and follow‑ups.
Meeting notetaker
Joins Zoom and Teams calls on its own, records them, and writes the notes.
Flourish
Preventing chronic disease through behavior change and stress and burnout management.
Chocolate chip cookies
Perfecting my recipe.
Music
Enter selects, Escape goes back a level like the Menu button, the up and down arrows scroll, the left and right arrows change tracks, and P plays or pauses.
