About Me

Automation systems and interactive experiences

Drew Lickman

Hello, I'm Drew.

I build AI-assisted automation that turns repetitive work into reliable, reviewable systems. At Deloitte and MTSU, I found workflow friction, mapped the problem, and built practical scripts and tools to reduce it.

I also build interactive entertainment: Unity gameplay systems, browser-based party games, and tools that help players explore the games they love. That mix keeps me focused on both the system behind an experience and the person using it.

I studied Computer Science at Middle Tennessee State University with a minor in Entrepreneurship. I bring that technical foundation into each project, from early prototypes to the details that make a tool safe to use or a game satisfying to play.

  • AI automation: workflow analysis, PowerShell, local tools, and AI-assisted development
  • Interactive entertainment: Unity, browser games, gameplay systems, and player-facing tools
  • Engineering practice: practical debugging, clear documentation, and iterative delivery

2026 - Present
Work

IT Technician Contractor

Deloitte

Audit enterprise laptop-provisioning workflows and build automation that supports consistent, quality-controlled deployment.

I support enterprise laptop deployment and upgrade workflows while looking for the manual steps that create inconsistency or rework. I built automation for bulk software installation and readiness checks, then refined it with teammates against shared deployment conditions.

  • Audited bulk software installation steps and scoped automation for the highest-friction work
  • Built batch and PowerShell scripts for bulk installs, common-popup handling, and device-readiness self-audits
  • Worked with deployment teammates to surface edge cases and refine shared workflow logic
  • Managed imaging, pre-provisioning, quality assurance, inventory, and shipping coordination
