AI Workshops

I teach businesses and communities how to actually use AI.

Not slides about what AI might do someday. Hands-on sessions where your team walks out knowing how to put these tools to work on Monday morning.

2,000+ hours building with AI. Not reading about it.

I've spent the last year deep in the weeds with every major AI tool, framework, and workflow. I've built production applications, generated thousands of images and videos, automated entire business processes, and pushed these tools until they broke so I could find where they actually deliver.

That's the difference between my workshops and a YouTube tutorial. I've made the mistakes already. I know what works, what's hype, and what's going to waste your time. And I can translate all of it into language your team will actually understand.

What I teach

From first-time prompts to full AI-built software.

Every workshop is tailored to your team's skill level. I meet people where they are, not where I think they should be.

Foundations

AI for everyday work

ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Copilot. How to write prompts that actually get useful results. Where AI saves hours and where it wastes them. Building an AI-first workflow without changing everything overnight.

For teams new to AI or stuck at "I tried ChatGPT once."

Creative

AI media production

Image generation with Midjourney, DALL-E, and Flux. Video creation and editing with AI. AI avatars for content and training. Turning one piece of content into ten with AI-assisted repurposing.

For marketing teams, content creators, and anyone producing media.

Automation

AI-powered workflows

Connecting AI to your existing tools. Automating repetitive processes that eat up your team's week. Building AI agents that handle tasks without babysitting. Making your data work harder without hiring more people.

For operations teams and business owners drowning in manual work.

Advanced

Vibe coding & AI development

Building real software with AI. Going from idea to working application. Understanding what's possible now that wasn't possible two years ago. When to build custom and when to buy off the shelf.

For founders, technical teams, and anyone curious about building with AI.

How it works

Workshops built around your team, not a slide deck.

Discovery call

We talk about your team's current skill level, your business goals, and the specific problems you want AI to help with. No two workshops are the same.

Custom curriculum

I build the session around your actual workflows and tools. Your team works on real problems from their own day, not hypothetical exercises.

Hands-on session

Laptops open. Everyone participates. I demonstrate, your team practices, and by the end of the session they've built something they can use immediately.

Follow-up resources

Every attendee gets reference materials, prompt templates, and a recording of the session. Questions after the workshop? I'm a text away.

Giving back

Free workshops for WNY community organizations and nonprofits.

AI shouldn't be something only well-funded companies get to learn about. The organizations doing the hardest work in our community, the nonprofits, the workforce development programs, the neighborhood groups, they deserve access to these tools too.

I'm personally committed to helping Western New York learn and use AI. That means I set aside time each month for free workshops with community organizations who couldn't otherwise afford them. Same quality, same depth, same hands-on approach. No catch.

Availability is limited. If your organization serves the WNY community and could benefit from AI training, reach out. I'll make it work.

Request a free community workshop

The people building the future shouldn't all look the same, come from the same places, or have the same bank accounts.

Let's get your team up to speed.

Tell me about your team, what they're working on, and where AI could help. I'll tell you exactly what a workshop would cover and what it'll cost.

Many workshop clients discover they're ready to build. That's where ProductDriven's custom software work begins.
