About Me
AI Consultant & Technology Leader actively building AI-enabled infrastructure.
I'm Perry Bailes, an AI consultant and technology leader based in Boston, MA and the North Shore area. I'm actively building AI-enabled infrastructure that empowers businesses to leverage autonomous agent systems, MCP server orchestration, and workflow automation platforms—without requiring deep technical expertise.
With 15+ years of technology leadership experience, I specialize in democratizing AI for business leaders. My focus is on AI-assisted development, cloud infrastructure, enterprise integrations, and end-to-end automation solutions that deliver real business value quickly.
I combine hands-on AI agent development with strategic technology advisement, helping SMBs evaluate and implement AI solutions through comprehensive readiness assessments and custom automation frameworks. I balance being a student with serving as a teacher and mentor to those around me.
