Question 1

How much does AI coaching cost?

Accepted Answer

I offer three session tiers: AI Kickstart ($150 for 60 minutes), AI Deep Dive ($250 for 90 minutes), and AI Workflow Builder ($400 for two 60-minute sessions). All sessions include a recording and follow-up support.

Question 2

Which AI tools do you teach?

Accepted Answer

I work with Claude (Anthropic), ChatGPT (OpenAI), and Perplexity. During our first session, I help you choose the tool that fits your work style and goals. I don't sell any particular tool — I teach you to use whichever one works best for your situation.

Question 3

Do I need any technical experience?

Accepted Answer

No. I work with people at every level — from those who've never used AI to those who want to build advanced workflows. My approach is structured and practical, so you'll learn regardless of your starting point.

Question 4

What happens in a coaching session?

Accepted Answer

Every session follows a three-phase structure: (1) Tool Selection — we identify the right AI tool for your work, (2) Prompting Framework — I teach you a structured method for writing prompts that get useful results, and (3) Real Work — we work through an actual task from your job using AI. You leave with something tangible, not just notes.

Question 5

Are sessions in-person or virtual?

Accepted Answer

All sessions are conducted via Zoom by default. If you're in the Hagerstown or Frederick, Maryland area, I can arrange in-person sessions at your office or a meeting space. Just mention your preference when booking.

Question 6

Can you train my whole team?

Accepted Answer

Yes. While my standard sessions are 1-on-1, I offer custom team training packages for organizations. Contact me to discuss your team's size, goals, and schedule, and I'll build a training plan around your specific needs.

Question 7

What's your background?

Accepted Answer

I have 30+ years in IT infrastructure, including 12 years in the U.S. Navy, 6 years at Lockheed Martin, 9 years at Accenture, and I currently oversee data center operations at Children's National Hospital. I've been through every major technology shift since the 1990s — virtualization, cloud, mobile, automation — and I bring that perspective to AI education.

Question 8

How is this different from online courses?

Accepted Answer

Online courses give you generic content. I give you a personalized framework built around your actual work. You bring a real task — a report, an email, a project plan — and we solve it together using AI. You leave having done real work, not just watched a video.

Question 9

Do you offer refunds?

Accepted Answer

Yes, within the first 30 minutes of your session. If you're not feeling it after 30 minutes, I'll refund you in full. Beyond that point, the session continues as booked. I'm confident enough in the value that I offer that window — if it's not clicking by then, fair enough.

Question 10

How do I book a session?

Accepted Answer

Visit the Services page to see all packages and pricing, or use the Contact page to send me a message. I'll respond within one business day to schedule your session.
