Businesses are sitting on massive amounts of data, but most teams still rely on manual processes, spreadsheets, and disconnected reporting tools. I help companies turn those systems into AI-powered workflows, automated reporting, and intelligent data platforms. Over the past several years I’ve helped 100+ companies build solutions that combine AI, automation, and analytics to eliminate manual work and unlock better decision making. Today my team and I specialize in building AI-driven business systems, including: • AI agents that automate workflows and decision making • AI-generated dashboards built from natural language prompts • Automated reporting pipelines and data warehouses • AI document processing and data extraction systems • Custom analytics platforms for operations, finance, and sales teams Many of my clients start with a reporting or automation problem and quickly realize they can go much further by introducing AI-driven processes into their operations. Examples of solutions we’ve built: • AI dashboards that generate Power BI reports from simple prompts • AI agents that process invoices and automatically code GL entries • Automated reporting systems integrating QuickBooks, Shopify, Salesforce, and ERP data • AI intake agents for law firms that handle client intake conversations • Data warehouses feeding executive dashboards for C-suite reporting • Workflow automation systems eliminating hours of manual spreadsheet work My background started in Excel automation, data engineering, and analytics, which means the AI solutions I build are grounded in real business data systems, not just experimental tools. Technologies I commonly work with: AI / Automation • OpenAI / LLM integrations • AI workflow automation • AI agents and conversational systems • Natural language data interfaces Data & Analytics • Power BI • Tableau • SQL databases • Data warehouse architecture • ETL pipelines Automation • Python • API integrations • Excel / VBA automation • Workflow automation platforms Why clients hire me: • I combine AI expertise with real business data systems • I focus on solutions that save time or generate revenue • My team can deliver end-to-end systems, not just prototypes If you're looking to bring AI into your business operations, automate reporting, or build intelligent systems on top of your data, I’d be happy to discuss how we can help.

I architect end-to-end Power Platform solutions for companies operating across countries and time zones — from executive dashboards in Power BI to business apps in Power Apps to automated workflows in Power Automate and AI agents in Copilot Studio. What I bring to the table: ■ I've delivered a 21-dashboard, 11-report Power BI implementation spanning 4 business domains for a multinational agricultural operation — phased over 13 months, fully remote, across a 6-hour time zone gap. ■ I maintain a multi-year Power BI + Power Apps retainer for an international institute, including a full integration stack (JotForm → Zapier → SQL → Power BI) that I designed and built from scratch. ■ I've deployed Copilot Studio AI agents in production for a law firm and a healthcare organization — not prototypes, not demos, real systems handling real users today. ■ I'm an economist, with professional experience in financial analysis and business intelligence. I don't just build dashboards — I understand the KPIs, financial models, and business logic behind them. When I design a report, it's structured around the decisions it needs to support, not just the data it can display. 70+ projects delivered | 100% Job Success | Top Rated | 3,600+ hours on the platform I may be a good fit if: ► You need a Power BI implementation that goes beyond a single dashboard — structured, multi-domain, designed for executive decision-making ► You want to automate business processes end-to-end with Power Automate (approvals, email workflows, SharePoint integration, data pipelines) ► You're exploring Copilot Studio and need someone who has actually shipped it in production ► You need a Power Apps solution to replace spreadsheets, paper forms, or disconnected tools ► You operate internationally and need a consultant who delivers reliably across cultures and time zones Let's start with a conversation. Book a consultation or message me with your challenge — I'll tell you honestly whether I'm the right fit.
