🤖 Applied AI Builder | Turning AI into tools that make life easier (and more fun)

About

I love turning AI into tools that make people’s lives easier — and sometimes more fun. So far that’s meant: - Helping a climate NGO extract knowledge from complex reports with OCR + LLMs - Building an AI-powered quiz app with paying users - Building a semantic search & ranking system for energy researchers - Creating the European AI Atlas, an open-source map of AI services in Europe Before that, I worked in research (life-cycle assessment & sustainability software) and as an AWS consultant, which gave me both domain depth and engineering breadth. Here on LinkedIn, I share what I learn from building in the wild: prompting, evaluation, search, and new ways to interact with AI (including voice and agents). 👉 I’m open to consulting, collaborations, and projects where AI can help people work smarter, learn faster, or just enjoy technology a little more. 🌍 Languages: English, French, German, Swedish
