Experience
IT AI Productivity Coordinator, KEITH Manufacturing role 2026
The company's first dedicated AI role, created after the CEO heard about a personal agent I built and asked me to pitch ideas for a job that did not yet exist.
I own Copilot adoption across the licensed user base and build agents and automations with Power Platform, Copilot Studio, Python, Azure, and the Claude and OpenAI APIs. Everything ships into Microsoft Teams and M365 Copilot, where people already are.
Manufacturing floor, KEITH Manufacturing role 2022
Late 2022 to 2025. Worked the floor during the day and taught myself retrieval systems and AI tooling on my own time, building RAG systems with LangChain, Pinecone, and Python. Then I built an agent for myself to get up to speed in a new department.
Host, STEPN DAILY podcast 2022
300+ episodes covering the STEPN ($GMT) web3 ecosystem, and a 14,000-follower audience on X built alongside it. Daily shipping, a live audience, and a lot of practice explaining a technical thing to people who don't want a lecture.
@Ktrain_USA on XB.S. General Science, Oregon State University education
Bachelor of Science in General Science, with additional pharmacy coursework.
Field reports
Kaizen Coach subsidiary support lead
I worked with your Kaizen Coach for hours yesterday fixing the parameters for EU MRP and I am very pleased with the final result.
Serial Plate Generator engraving department lead
We would type out one plate at a time, place 28 plates on one sheet, and print it twice. With the new sized plates, serial number generator, and script, we probably save well over an hour.
Safety Assistant plant manager
The Safety Assistant helped me find the information I needed without interrupting someone else. That's a big win during a busy day.
CertTracker safety coordinator
Before CertTracker, keeping track of certifications was mostly manual. Now I can find what I need almost instantly.
Copilot training parts department lead
The training focused on practical examples instead of AI buzzwords, which made it easy to apply to my job.
Adoption program manufacturing / management consultant
Kenny's approach focused on solving actual business problems rather than implementing technology for technology's sake.
