I build AI content engines. Right now I run them for 7+ brands.

One lane. Three ways in. 💖

I do exactly one job here: AI marketing operations. Three engagement shapes, same underlying work.

AI Content Engine Builds

I design and ship the full pipeline: keyword research, content calendar, multi-agent drafting, sanity gates, and distribution to Ghost / WordPress / socials. I run this for 7+ brands right now — including mine.

AI-Powered SEO & Content Ops

Ongoing operations for teams that have content but no engine. Keyword strategy, internal linking, publishing cadence, refresh sweeps — automated where it should be, human where it shouldn't.

n8n / Mastra Automations

Workflow engineering for marketing and operations. I migrated my own stack off n8n to Mastra — I can do yours either direction depending on what fits.

Need broader AI consulting, a fractional CTO, or short-term rental cohosting? Those live in sibling brands so this lane stays sharp.

Build Logs & Insights

Honest notes from the journey. Wins, fails, and the boring middle.

How Mastra's SF Demo Day Solidified My Bet on TypeScript for AI

How Mastra's SF Demo Day Solidified My Bet on TypeScript for AI I’ve been a software developer for over a decade, and for the past five months, I've been quietly working with Mastra, a framework I stumbled upon while searching for a seamless AI workflow management solution. I was already a fangirl, so when they announced a demo day in San Francisco, I knew I had to be there. I flew in with high expectations, and the event didn't just meet them—it blew them away. I walked out more convinced tha
