There's something I love about meeting someone for the first time over coffee. The conversation tends to breathe a little more, ideas come out half-formed in a way they don't on video, and by the end you actually have a sense of whether you'd enjoy working together — not just whether the project lines up on paper. If you're in the Boulder or Denver area and want to swap the Zoom link for a real table, this is for you.

It's a no-pressure 25–50 minutes to get to know each other and see if there's a fit. With AI changing the landscape almost weekly, I know it's hard to tell what's hype, what's real, and what's actually worth your team's time — and those kinds of conversations tend to go better face-to-face anyway. If in-person isn't practical, video works too; just pick whichever fits your schedule.

You don't need to come with anything polished. A rough sense of what you're working on is plenty. If it helps, here are a few things that tend to make these conversations most useful:

The problem or opportunity that prompted you to reach out
A little context on your team or company (size, industry, where you are today)
Any timeline pressure you're working against
Tools or systems already in play that a solution would need to fit around
Any AI or automation ideas you've been kicking around — even half-formed ones

Whether you're looking for a custom software build, exploring where AI or agentic workflows could fit into your business, or just trying to cut through the noise, I'm happy to talk it through. By the end, you'll walk away with an honest take on whether I can help. If I'm not the right person, I'll do my best to point you toward someone who is.
