calgary, alberta · open to work

Hi, I'm Chen. I make businesses run themselves.

I'm an engineer and certified project manager who owns three small businesses — a drinkware brand, a pharmacy, and a consulting practice. I build the systems that do their repetitive daily work, so a tiny team gets big-company output. When I build for you, you're getting what I run my own companies on.

01 // what that means for you

01

Spend less

My ad system does the work an agency charged $3–5K/month for — it costs me $32/month. One model swap cut an AI bill by 98%.

02

Get your time back

Every morning my businesses send me a short briefing: sales, inventory, staffing, what needs a decision. I approve from my phone. That used to be my whole day.

03

Grow without hiring

Websites that improve themselves weekly, ads tuned daily, customers followed up automatically. Small team, big output.

Am I an AI guy or a project manager? Both — and that's the point. AI is just the newest tool in the box. The job is the same one I've done on $50M projects: understand how the work flows, remove the waste, and make sure the important stuff can't fall through the cracks.

LAMOSE — an e-commerce brand run by an AI workforce

live

My drinkware brand runs day-to-day without me. Sixteen AI helpers watch sales, inventory, pricing, and ads, then send me a morning briefing — and ask permission before touching anything that matters. I spend minutes a day on what used to take all of it.

AI Ads Manager — replacing a $3–5K/mo agency with $32/mo of software

live

Ad agencies wanted $3–5K a month to manage my Google Ads. I built software that does the same daily tuning for about $32 a month — and it now runs the advertising for four businesses, managing ~$9,150/month in ad spend.

Autonomous SEO agent — $11/year in AI costs

live

A tireless marketing assistant that makes two of my websites a little better every single week — fixes problems, sharpens page titles, writes three blog posts — and emails me what it did. Its AI bill: about $11 a year.

Calgary's largest pole & aerial fitness studio was running three locations on spreadsheets and exports. Now one dashboard shows the owner exactly where revenue moved, which classes keep members coming back, and runs payroll — trusted with real paycheques every month.

Wondering what this could do for your business?

Tell me what eats your week — the reports, the scheduling, the follow-ups, the ad agency bill. I'll tell you honestly whether it's worth automating, what it would cost, and what I'd do first. Contract, ongoing, or full-time.
