Architecting the Unseen
We build the bridge where dreams take flight, And turn the spark to digital light. Through every line and every screen, We bring to life the world unseen.
The Integrity of Innovation
To lead with grace and act with care, Is how we build a world that’s fair. A steady hand and vision true, Will craft a path for something new.
Igniting a Shared Future
A daring spark can light the way, And turn the night to brightest day. When kindness meets a grander goal, We lift the spirit and the soul.
ABOUT ME
Mary Joy Olmstead is the Founder & Director of YBO IT Solutions, where she leads operations, delivery management, and strategic digital initiatives for enterprise and institutional clients worldwide. Having built the company from the ground up, she runs it end to end and supervises structured service teams focused on performance, measurable outcomes, and continuous improvement.
Her background in operational management, quality assurance, and process optimization underpins a results-driven approach to technology delivery — and increasingly to her work as an AI & Software Facilitator, championing practical, hands-on adoption that builds real internal capability.
Career Foundations
Before specializing in AI capability activation, Mary spent years in facilitation and Quality Analyst roles—designing training programs, improving workflow standards, and ensuring service consistency across teams. This foundation in quality control and operational systems became the backbone of her structured, results-driven approach to technology implementation.

Expert Guidance in AI & Software
Mary Joy Olmstead serves as an AI & Software Facilitator dedicated to bridging the gap between emerging tech and local workforce capability. As a leading Advocate for Practical AI in the Philippines, she champions a "deploy-while-learning" philosophy. Her work moves beyond theory to provide hands-on integration that builds confidence, ensures governance, and creates sustainable internal ownership for Filipino enterprises.

Leading with Heart
Beyond technology and leadership, Mary champions Ripple of Joy—YBO’s purpose-driven initiative rooted in the belief that joy is not just a feeling, but a spark that can change lives through simple, consistent acts of care. Fueled by the trust of YBO clients, a portion of company profits is directed into community outreach—turning business partnerships into real-world impact. Guided by Mary’s heart for service and her belief that “Later is sometimes never,” the initiative delivers meaningful moments of support: essentials for those facing hardship, nourishment and care for those who cannot provide for themselves, and celebrations of milestones that might otherwise be forgotten. What began as a mission to show up with open hands and open hearts is only the beginning—one that Mary intends to grow further with the help of donors, partners, and the continued success of YBO.
