I started using AI for my work two weeks after ChatGPT came out, and I have not stopped. Within a few months I was the person friends and coworkers came to when they wanted help understanding what AI could do. I started KaiSpark to do that work full time.
I spent years learning how businesses operate, how work moves through them, and where it tends to get stuck. Over the last few years, I have learned how to use AI to solve those problems. When you understand the work and the technology at the same time, you can find better ways to solve old problems and see new things worth building.
The space is moving fast and getting faster, even for someone who uses AI every single day. I watch friends, family, and clients trying to get started now, and I know how overwhelming it is to figure out where to begin, what to focus on, and which tools matter. Helping people make sense of it and find what fits them is the part of this work I enjoy most.
I studied Mandarin in college, then moved to China for two years to keep studying it. I know what it is like to be a beginner at something complicated, and I know that with steady work and a good teacher, the fog clears. That is where the name comes from. Kai comes from the Chinese character 开 (kāi), which means to start, to open, or to begin. AI was the start of a new chapter for me. I want to help other people start theirs.
