Let's Build Something Amazing

About Me

The man behind the machine

New to this, potentially true to this

I'm Clay St.Clair, just another guy to start off with. I made this website because I wanted a place I could be authentically me without being worried about impacting anyone's brand but my own.

I like to read, write, play golf when it's nice out and especially enjoy meeting new people. For work I'm currently funemployed but historically I've been an accounting consultant. Now I'd like to leverage those skills with what I've learned through using AI.

I hope you like my page here or any of the others I've created. Please note this is the second web page I've completed so there may still be some inaccuracies. If you're interested in building something together or teaching me how to make better websites please let me know via email. Let's grab a beer, or not, it's your world I'm just living in it.

My Values

The principles that guide everything I do

Honesty

Transparency in all communications and dealings. I believe in being straightforward about capabilities, timelines, and challenges - because trust is built on truth.

Integrity

Doing the right thing even when no one is watching. Maintaining ethical standards in every aspect of work and life, from client relationships to code quality.

Respect

Valuing every person's time, perspective, and contribution. Whether it's a client, colleague, or community member - everyone deserves to be heard and valued.

Education

Continuous learning and sharing knowledge. The world of technology and finance evolves rapidly - staying curious and helping others learn keeps us all moving forward.

Humor

Finding joy and laughter in the journey. Work doesn't have to be serious all the time - a little humor makes collaboration more enjoyable and creativity more natural.
