Matt Bastar
Automation & Integration Specialist
My journey into technology began in an unexpected place: the operations side of mental health facilities. After years of seeing how the right systems could transform patient outcomes and staff efficiency, I became fascinated by the intersection of technology and human experience.
Today, I specialize in building AI-powered automations and no-code solutions that make complex technology accessible to teams without technical barriers. My background in mental health operations gives me a unique perspective on designing systems that truly serve people rather than just process data.
I currently work full-time at a digital marketing agency serving mental health clinics, where I lead CRM implementations, AI integrations, and workflow optimizations. I also write about no-code tools, productivity, and the evolving relationship between technology and humanity.
