Engineer by training, builder by nature.

I'm Clausius Sama — born in Burkina Faso and raised mostly in Louisiana after my family immigrated to the U.S. in 2003. I studied mechanical engineering at Louisiana Tech University, and today I work as a Controls Engineer at Prolec Energy, where I spend my days improving manufacturing processes and automating the systems that keep a plant running.

Outside of the day job, I run KaizenEdge AI, a B2B demand-generation system built for recruitment agencies. It identifies companies with active hiring pain and runs the outreach that turns those signals into pre-qualified meetings — the connector business I'm building for the long haul. I'm also the founder of Trendly, a fashion-tech platform for virtual try-on and AI styling.

I'm drawn to systems: mechanical, industrial, and now agentic. My focus right now is compounding high-income skills — engineering, AI, and entrepreneurship — into cashflow I can direct toward making life better for my family.
