Available for hire — seeking a full-time role, not selling a product

I'm looking to be hired — not to sell you a product or service. As one employee, I'd cover two roles a small firm usually can't justify separately: the paralegal casework and the technology behind it — the case-management tools, the automation, and (where it helps) private AI that runs in-house, so client data never leaves the building.

The idea

One person, two jobs — plus the piece most firms are missing

Small and mid-sized firms need substantive paralegal help and someone to run their technology, but rarely enough of either to justify two hires. I do both — with the technical judgment to keep a firm's systems running and, where it helps, set up tools a firm can actually trust with client files.

The paralegal

Substantive casework, in-house

Medical chronologies, records requests, discovery organization, and filing calendars — currently about halfway through Colorado paralegal coursework (no state license required).

The developer

10+ years building software

Roles across enterprise, SaaS, and legal software — including case-management tools at Davis Graham & Stubbs, one of Colorado's largest firms. I'd keep the tools, automation, and systems running in-house, so there's no separate IT contract.

Why this matters right now

The right tool can draft a medical chronology in minutes — but the common shortcut is uploading protected health information to a third-party cloud, which many firms won't accept, and rightly so. Run it locally, on the firm's own hardware, and you get that speed with the privacy of a filing cabinet. Someone has to set that up and run it responsibly. That's the role.

A sample of my work

Medical chronologies, built and run in-house

One example of the tooling I can build for a firm: raw provider records in, an attorney-ready medical chronology out, with zero client data leaving the machine. Modeled on a typical personal-injury matter — the kind of case any Colorado firm handles.

The demo dashboard building a medical chronology on-device — reading six provider records including a scanned PDF via OCR, then producing 13 treatment events, $20,702 in billed charges, and one flagged care gap.

  • Reconciles 6 providers into a single date-ordered timeline of 13 treatment events, each citing its source (Bates) page.
  • Reads records however the firm has them — typed notes or scanned PDFs, OCR'd on-device with Apple's Vision engine.
  • Sums $20,702 in billed charges and flags a 33-day gap in treatment — all computed in code, not guessed by the model.
  • Surfaces causation statements and defense vulnerabilities (pre-existing findings, missed visits) for the attorney to weigh early.

Common questions

What a firm usually wants to know

Is the AI accurate enough to trust?

Every chronology is a draft for paralegal review, not a filing. The model reads and organizes; the dates and dollar totals are computed in code and cite the exact source (Bates) page, so your team verifies each line against the record. The human stays in the loop.

Does it work with our existing case-management system?

Yes. It runs alongside whatever you already use and produces standard Word and PDF deliverables — nothing to rip out or replace.

What hardware does it need?

An ordinary computer. The demo runs on a 16 GB laptop — no servers, no GPU, no special IT project.

Is it confidential? What about HIPAA?

The model runs on your own hardware and never contacts a cloud service. You can prove it by pulling the internet and watching it still work — client data never leaves the building.

Is this a product you're selling us?

No. I'm offering to be the in-house hire who builds and runs this — and does the paralegal work day to day. The tools are open-source and local; the value is one person who understands both the law work and the technology.

Let's talk

Open to a salaried hybrid role with a Colorado firm

Fifteen minutes is enough to show you the demo running on your own hardware — records in, chronology out, nothing leaving the room.

I'm seeking a salaried role at $30–40/hour ($60,000–80,000/year) — a low rate for a firm that's getting a paralegal and a software/IT professional in a single hire.
