I'm a designer who builds with AI, and still judges every output like an artist.

Six years ago I was staging rooms for US real-estate listings, one room at a time. Today I design the AI workflows, review systems and content engines that do it at scale.

18.7 → 10

Five systems, and what they changed.

Each one hangs on the wall to your left. Keep walking.

REimagineHome, search and answer discovery

An AI-assisted content engine for search and answer discovery

18.7 → 10average non-brand search position

Problem
Blog content didn't match what people were actually searching for.
What I did
Built prompt systems, a publishing workflow and QA checks, then tested the blog, Reddit, Quora and YouTube using Search Console and GA4 data.
Result
Moved up almost nine places on average, and the team published faster with consistent quality.

Styldod, partnerships and operations

Scaling PlanOmatic from pilot to recurring production

1,500images across 127 orders, about 16K invoiced

Problem
A new partnership had to go from a trial to reliable weekly production.
What I did
Coordinated delivery across teams and tightened the operations behind every order.
Result
A recurring partnership. On the print, each square is one staged image and each change of tone is a new order.

Styldod, quality systems

Review frameworks that replaced manual rework

Less reworkand consistent output at volume

Problem
Quality depended on manual checks, so off-spec work slipped through and needed fixing later.
What I did
Found the gaps in the pipeline and introduced review systems and shared standards.
Result
Off-spec work is caught at review instead of by the customer.

Styldod, applied AI

Improving accuracy in AI design workflows

Empty to stagedimages good enough to decide on

Problem
AI-staged images have to be accurate enough for real buying decisions.
What I do
I improve the accuracy, usability and output quality of AI staging, enhancement and redesign.
Result
Images real-estate customers can trust.

Styldod, curation

650 furniture sets, curated by style

650sets in 12 collections, for 6 room types

Why
Virtual staging only looks right when every piece in the room belongs to the same style.
What I did
Curated complete furniture sets for ten interior styles across six room types, plus gym and bathroom collections, each with its own set code.
