Operations judgment → directed AI build → shipped products

Twenty years in operations taught me to see the broken system under any surface.

Now I direct a team of AI agents to build the software that fixes it — three products under SanctumTools LLC, the company that came out of it.

Welcome

Welcome.

I'm Melanie. You found my portal.

This is where I keep my work — what I've built, what I'm building, and the parts of my story I'm willing to show. Have a wander: About, Built, and Résumé. The rest fills in as it gets built.

Anchor credential — Accounts Receivable turnaround
$500K$49K

Aging receivables cut by roughly 90%. I found the mechanism, rebuilt the workflow, and held the line until the number moved — the un-discountable proof of the judgment behind everything else here.

reduction in outstanding A/R
01

Operations judgment

Two decades reading systems cold — automotive, hospitality, admin, accounts receivable. The instinct for what actually breaks and what actually matters.

02

Directed AI build

That judgment, pointed at a team of AI agents. I architect and orchestrate; the build gets executed under my standard, not my keystrokes.

03

Shipped products
