The Monk of AI
The AI guide with a chaplain's heart and 35+ years of tech experience.
A day in the life of the ED…
You didn't get into nonprofit work to spend your Thursday afternoon rebuilding a volunteer spreadsheet someone accidentally deleted.
But here you are. Board reports that take four hours. Grant narratives written from scratch every time. Critical knowledge walking out the door with every staff departure. And a team that's already at capacity before you even mention trying something new.
That's where I come in. Not to add more to your plate - to take things off it.
Why You Might Want Help
You’re doing a hundred things at once, and the thought of learning ‘just one more tool’ makes your stomach turn.
You have an inkling that AI could probably help your organization in several ways but are unsure about the ethics of using it and don’t know where to start.
You tried ChatGPT once, got a generic answer, and thought 'okay, so it's like Google but chattier.' You're not wrong - that's what AI looks like without a guide.
Meet MJ
Nonprofit AI Trainer & Strategist
I spent 35 years in Information Technology - networks, systems, code, the works. Then I stepped away to live as an Episcopal Benedictine monk and work as a jail chaplain. What that experience gave me wasn't just perspective - it was the ability to meet people exactly where they are, without judgment, and help them find solid footing in territory that feels foreign.
Now I do that with AI.
I'm trained in the Compassion Practice and have worked as a life coach. I understand the "tech overwhelm" that hits nonprofit leaders - not as a concept, but as something I've sat with many times. I'm not here to impress you with what AI can do. I'm here to help you figure out if it's right for you, and if it is, to make sure it actually works.

My Team
Sure, technically, I’m a one-human show—but let’s be real, I don’t work alone. I’ve got an elite squad of AI-powered co-conspirators helping me brainstorm, create, and strategize at lightning speed.
Meet the team:
Claude – My daily partner who can write and think like no other.
ChatGPT – The extra set of (virtual) hands capable of doing a deep dive and producing a concise result.
Gemini – The serious professor who happens to be a genius.
NotebookLM – The organized one, making sure research doesn’t turn into an internet rabbit hole full of hallucinations. The hidden gem of AI.
And a host of other AI sidekicks that help me work smarter, not harder.
But it’s not just me and my digital dream team. I’m also plugged into AI think tanks and expert groups—where the latest innovations, tools, and strategies are shared, tested, and optimized.
The bottom line: you get one person who shows up and actually knows your name - backed by tools that work at the speed of a full team.
