Current work page for Aaron Makelky: remote from Wyoming, testing AI tools on real work, and teaching the parts that hold up.

Now

I taught and coached in Wyoming before tech. Now I test AI tools on real work, then turn the useful parts into workshops, notes, and small tools. I teach technical topics to people who don't write code.

Focus

## I test tools and teach the parts that hold up.

Most of my work is practical: public tests, workshops, creator workflows, and small resources for people who do not want jargon or product docs. I also do consulting, school trainings, and speaking. Same teaching job as before: make the next step clear enough that somebody can try it after the session ends.

### Public tests

### Workshops

### Creator workflows

### School trainings

### Speaking

### Consulting

Filters

## The filter I keep coming back to.

### Test it on a normal Tuesday.

A tool has to handle a rushed calendar, a messy spreadsheet, and a person who does not care how clever the model is. A clean demo is not enough.

### Teach the move, not the tour.

Most people do not need another walkthrough. They need the first thing to try, what to check, and when to stop.

### No brand deals. No sponsored praise.

If I talk about a tool, it is because I used it and the lesson is worth sharing.
