I build and run data businesses with AI coding agents and document the process on YouTube.
I'm a USA Today bestselling author based in Ireland. For most of my career I ran Become a Writer Today. Now I build Irish data products with Claude Code, and film the builds as I go.
Below are the videos, the sites I run, and the open-source agent skills I use every day.
