About Preston Lee

I've always been intrigued by automation, starting as a child watching Startrek, to my university years studying mechatronics (robotics), into my professional career as a consulting engineer and business owner. The opportunities for automation throughout have been plentiful and rewarding. With over 16 years of experience in small businesses across Switzerland, Canada, and Australia, I have developed a deep understanding of the unique dynamics and challenges that these businesses face. From establishing branch offices for consulting engineering firms to leading teams and driving growth, my career has been guided by a single powerful driver: helping others excel. As a trained engineer, certified Project Management Professional, and business strategist, I have always been at the intersection of technology and business strategy. I firmly believe that technology, when strategically applied, can serve as a powerful engine of growth and efficiency. Today, we stand on the cusp of a new era. The exponential growth of AI and automation opens up a wealth of opportunities, opportunities that have the potential to transform small businesses in unprecedented ways. But seizing these opportunities requires more than just awareness. It requires strategic planning, foresight, and a deep understanding of the unique dynamics of small businesses. That's where I come in. Leveraging my extensive experience and understanding of small businesses, I guide my clients through the process of integrating AI into their strategies. But this is not about AI for the sake of AI. It's about using AI as a tool, a means to an end, with the end being the growth and success of your business. I understand that change can be daunting. That's why my approach is always gentle, collaborative, and focused on bringing everyone on board. But I'm also not afraid to push hard when necessary. I am, after all, an engineer at heart, and like any good engineer, I understand the importance of meeting deadlines and achieving goals. In this next stage of my career, I'm excited to continue harnessing the power of AI and automation for the benefit of small businesses. If you're interested in exploring how AI can support your business growth, I'd love to have a conversation with you.
