The thing that pushed me
to actually start this.
There's a business my family has used for years. Good people, good work, loyal customers. But they were dropping calls, missing follow-up messages, and losing track of who needed what and when. Not because they didn't care - they cared a lot. It was just chaos, and no one had ever given them the tools to fix it.
I kept thinking: I do this exact thing every day at scale for major retailers. I know how to build these systems. Why is this family's business still running on sticky notes and missed calls?
That's the moment IgniteAI KC became real.
I spent 20 years in operations management before transitioning into software development full time. That combination - understanding how businesses actually operate, then learning to build the technology that runs them - is the foundation everything here is built on.
For the past six years I've been a professional software developer building websites, applications, and data management systems. I currently work as a senior application developer for a large retail data management company, where I build and maintain systems that process data for clients like Walmart and Target every single day.
I know what enterprise-level automation looks like from the inside. The same principles that keep a billion-dollar retailer's operations running smoothly are now available to any small business that's ready to use them.
I don't drop off a system and disappear. I work alongside you the way a senior developer works alongside an internal team - understanding your actual operations first, then building something that fits the way you work, not the other way around.
Every business I work with gets a custom build. Not a template. Not a repurposed demo. A system designed around your specific bottlenecks, your team, and your customers.
