### FAQ
Q: Are you strictly a developer, or can you act as a Business Analyst?
A: I handle both. I bridge the gap between technical architecture and business strategy. Before writing code, I audit your legacy setups, run requirement-gathering sessions with your stakeholders, and document the complete technical scope to ensure the final build matches your exact operational goals.
Q: Do you provide ongoing support and documentation after deployment?
A: Absolutely. My goal is to make your team self sufficient. Every solution I build includes clean system documentation, workflow diagrams, and tailored user manuals, backed by structured training sessions for your staff.
Q: Are you locked into a single automation or AI tool?
A: No. While I specialize in building securely within your core Power Platform and Microsoft cloud environment, I fluidly leverage hybrid orchestration environments like n8n or connect custom APIs when it provides a faster, more cost-effective solution for your specific business requirements.

You don't have a tech problem — you have a systems problem.
I fix that.
I'm an AI automation engineer and data specialist with 20+
years building digital systems across fintech, SaaS, telco,
and EV infrastructure. I help businesses stop doing manually
what machines should be doing automatically — and start
making decisions from data they can actually trust.
This is not theoretical. I build production systems that
real businesses run on.
One example: I designed and built a fully automated
quotation engine for a national trade services business —
handling dynamic pricing logic, customer inputs, automated
calculations, and output generation end-to-end. No
spreadsheets. No manual back-and-forth. A customer enters
their requirements and a structured, accurate quote comes
out the other side automatically.
That is the kind of work I do.
Here is what I specialise in:
AI-Powered Workflow Automation
I build real automation workflows using Zapier, n8n, and
Make — integrated with AI models including Claude, GPT-4,
and Gemini where they add genuine value. Lead routing,
document processing, AI-assisted reporting, briefing
generation, QA checklists, post-purchase sequences,
and multi-step data pipelines. Every build includes
error handling, failure alerts, and a written SOP so
your team can own it after handover.
CRM Integration and Data Migration
I move data cleanly between HubSpot, Salesforce, Zoho,
Pipedrive, and custom CRMs. I build migration pipelines
that deduplicate records, map fields correctly, preserve
history, and run without breaking your live system.
No data loss. No guesswork. Full documentation on
delivery.
Custom Automation System Builds
Beyond off-the-shelf tools, I design and build custom
automation systems for businesses with specific
operational logic that generic platforms cannot handle.
Quotation engines, onboarding flows, approval workflows,
data processing pipelines, and customer-facing tools
that connect your front end to your back-end operations
automatically.
Data Analysis and Business Intelligence
I turn messy, scattered data into clear commercial
insight. Data cleaning, exploratory analysis, customer
behaviour patterns, revenue attribution, pipeline health
— I work with the data until it tells you something
useful and present it in a format decision-makers can
act on immediately.
Automated Reporting and Data Pipelines
I connect your data sources — CRM, ad platforms,
spreadsheets, databases, APIs — and build pipelines
that collect, clean, analyse, and deliver structured
reports on a schedule. Your team gets accurate
performance insight automatically, without pulling
a single number manually.
Spreadsheet and Database Engineering
Complex Google Sheets and Excel automation using
dynamic array formulas for data preparation,
transformation, and cleansing. SQL across Microsoft
SQL Server, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Google BigQuery,
and Snowflake — database design, architecture,
and complex custom queries for data processing
at scale.
Python Automation and API Integration
Python with Pandas, Selenium, and other libraries
for data manipulation, pipeline automation, and
workflow processing. API connections via Python,
Postman, and Google Apps Script to pull data from
any platform into your reporting or operational stack.
Who I work with:
Businesses scaling faster than their systems can handle.
Operations and marketing teams buried in manual work.
Founders who need production-grade technical execution
without the cost of a full-time hire.
SaaS and eCommerce businesses migrating or integrating
their data stack.
Any team that has outgrown spreadsheets but has not
yet built the systems to replace them.
How I engage:
Fixed-scope projects with clear deliverables and timelines.
Ongoing automation and reporting retainers.
One-off audits, data cleanups, and system builds.
Tools I work with:
HubSpot · Salesforce · Zoho · Pipedrive · Zapier ·
n8n · Make · Claude · ChatGPT · Python · SQL ·
PostgreSQL · MySQL · BigQuery · Snowflake ·
Google Sheets · Excel · Looker Studio · Power BI ·
AWS · Airtable · Notion · REST APIs · Webhooks ·
Google Apps Script · Postman · Pandas · Selenium
Every build comes with documentation so your team
owns it after I'm done.
