Hey everyone, I’m Gary Quigley 👋 I’m the founder of Peak13 Consulting, an AI automation agency helping business owners eliminate chaos and unlock their full potential through systems and strategy. With 8+ years in IT support, project delivery, service design, transition management and now AI expertise I’ve led high-impact rollouts for global organisations and helped design scalable, future ready systems. Right now, I’m diving deeper into LLMs, automation workflows, and AI integration across service based businesses especially in property and professional services. 🛫 Heading to Dubai on the 23rd and would love to connect with: - People already based in Dubai (any advice or meetups? 🙏) - Founders, operators, or consultants working with automation tools like Zapier, Make, or N8N - Anyone interested in geeking out over how AI is transforming ops, customer experience, and scale potential - I’m also here to learn what’s the biggest shift you’ve seen in your business since integrating automation? Let’s connect and collaborate. Drop a comment if you’re in Dubai or working in this space I’d love to meet up, I'm also seeking to work and support others as i don't necessarily need to own a business i just want to do something I'm passionate about so I'm exited to wake up in the mornings. I have also studied Human performance and like to teach others ways to do more in less time as a certified Business Strategist and Optimisation Coach and with less effort, Now can you see why I'm getting into AI 😄

Hey everyone, Wanted to drop a brief intro post responding to the welcome message, it lowkey started out brief as a comment but I've been kinda getting into the habit of writing and speaking to real humans online vs making technical documents, so I just decided to make it into a full-blown post. I’m DND (or you can call me Case, like my friends call me). I'm from Ontario, Canada. I come from an engineering background, but lately I’ve been diving "deep" (ahah no pun intended) into AI, systems, and automation —especially for content and brand growth. How I serve: I like breaking down complex tools into simple steps and sharing ideas that make work "easy as ABC". How I can be served: I’m here to learn, grow, and connect with people who are just as excited about what AI can do. Super stoked to be here with you all and thanks again for having me :)
