Jermaine Bethune

I'm a husband, father, and Solutions Consultant living in the New York metro area. By day I help city agencies harden their cybersecurity at Palo Alto Networks. Off the clock I read, write, study history, and tinker with AI tools that buy back time for family.

You can reach me at jermaine@hey.com, or find me on GitHub, LinkedIn, and X.

What I'm doing now

Selling and designing cybersecurity solutions for New York City public-sector accounts. Pushing toward a Senior Solutions Consultant promotion this year.

Currently reading and re-reading Ryan Holiday, Nassim Taleb, Robert Greene, and Cal Newport.

Projects & writing

I build small tools and write occasional notes on AI, productivity, and the craft of selling complex products. Most of my code lives on GitHub.

Personal AI workflows — Claude, ChatGPT, and NotebookLM stacks for research, writing, and family logistics.
Reading system — A blend of Kindle + Readwise and Ryan Holiday's notecard method for deep absorption.
This site — Plain HTML and CSS, hosted on Cloudflare Pages, edited from anywhere.
