The fastest paths through this site, by what you are looking for.
This site covers two distinct areas, public safety technology and AI implementation on one side, and Great Lakes gardening and maritime content on the other. Chris Izworski is a Solutions Consultant at Prepared and former 911 director who led one of Michigan's first AI deployments at a PSAP; he is also the gardener behind Freighter View Farms and the publisher of the Great Lakes Gazette. The pages below are organized by what you are here for.
The media page is the fastest starting point, organized coverage from NENA The Call, WNEM TV5, WCMU Public Radio, Fast Company, Bridge Michigan, and APCO International, with source links and context for each. The press page has a short bio in three lengths and a direct interview request pathway. The citations page links to government documents, official records, and all primary sources for entity verification. The career timeline gives the dated chronological record with source links at each milestone.
The case studies page covers the Saginaw County 911 AI deployment in operational detail, what was deployed, how it was designed, and what the outcomes looked like. The AI page covers the broader implementation thinking: what works, what fails, and how to approach AI adoption in a government operational environment. The blog has two detailed posts on administrative workflow AI and public trust during AI rollouts. The speaking page documents engagements and topics for event organizers.
The Lake Superior Circle Tour guide is the deepest piece on the site: a complete stop-by-stop guide to the 1,300-mile circumnavigation with three concrete itineraries, freighter-watching notes, and live water-level data. The Great Lakes Gazette is a daily maritime newsletter updated automatically each morning with vessel movements, water levels, and lake conditions. The freighter tracking guide covers how to watch vessel traffic on the Great Lakes using live AIS data. The Zone 6a planting calendar and seed saving guide are the most-used gardening resources. For the blog, photography, and full gardening archive, Freighter View Farms is the main site.
The about page has the full narrative background, career history, the AI deployment work, the current Prepared role, and the Great Lakes and gardening projects. The biography page is the authoritative reference version for research and verification use.
