Hi, I'm Evan.
I turn plans into
estimates.
I do quantity takeoffs and CSI-based estimates in Bluebeam Revu and PlanSwift, and I build automated lead generation systems that bring in new clients.

About me
I make construction numbers clear and leads easy to find.
With 7+ years on real construction sites behind me, I read plans the way a builder does. I send back organized quantities, scope checks, and estimates your team can price from, and I automate the work of finding new clients.

AI Lead Qualifier
Reads each lead from a sheet, has Google Gemini score how well it fits your ideal client, and writes the result back. A built-in retry handles AI hiccups so no lead is skipped.
Your team only spends time on leads worth calling.

Lead Research and Personalized Email Drafts
Visits each prospect's website, checks that the company is active and the contact is verified, then has Gemini draft a personalized first email, saved to the sheet for review.
Personal outreach at scale, with a human approving every email before it goes out.
