Hi, I'm Cedric.
Founder, Emmauris
My path was never a straight line. I started in IT more than a decade ago, then spent years building in other industries, including scaling a construction company to 30 employees. Running real operations taught me what actually moves a business, long before AI became my profession.
Top RatedEven before GPT-3 and ChatGPT existed, I had earned Google certifications in digital marketing and e-commerce, so the growth side was already in my toolkit. When GPT-3 was released, I understood immediately that something fundamental had changed, and that this was where the real value would be created. I went deep right away and earned multiple prompt engineering certifications from Vanderbilt University.
The more I built, the clearer it became that AI on its own is not the unlock. AI combined with automation is. So I added automation certifications from the Make Academy, focused on exactly that intersection, and have been building growth systems for companies ever since.
Today that adds up to deep, hands-on experience across agency operations, outbound, and the systems that let a business scale. When we work together, you get all of it, from the first call to ongoing partner.
“I build every system as if it had to run my own business.”
