The College Prof (thecollegeprof.ca) · 2024 to present

How an AI-paired development process transformed engagement, understanding and access

Visioneering · 2007 to 2012

When engineering and marketing finally spoke the same language: modernising Visioneering's digital infrastructure

Specifiers depended on the website for technical documents, but every update needed a coder and could take weeks. By rebuilding the workflow around how engineers worked, publishing time fell from weeks to hours and traffic rose 27%.
