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 am a Microsoft 365 Specialist and Digital Transformation Lead specializing in designing, building, and deploying enterprise-grade solutions that optimize operations. My expertise lies in turning chaotic, manual processes into streamlined, automated, and secure digital workflows using the entire Microsoft ecosystem. Most recently, I led massive digital transformation initiatives across the HR function at a global logistics leader (DP World). There, I independently built standalone apps, automated communication pipelines, and centralized documentation networks. 🌟 Core Expertise & How I Can Help You: SharePoint Architecture & Design: I design clean, intuitive front-end layouts and information architectures. Whether you need a corporate intranet hub or segmented sub-sites, I build them with robust, role-based access controls to guarantee data security. Power Apps Development: I build custom canvas and model-driven applications to replace disconnected tracking spreadsheets. My apps have successfully slashed business processing times by up to 40% and enabled real-time reporting. Power Automate (Flow) & Python: I specialize in end-to-end request management, scheduled reporting pipelines, and cross-platform integrations (including MS Forms, Teams Adaptive Cards, Excel, and custom Python scripts). My automation architectures have saved teams over 40 hours a month per workflow. Data Migration & Power BI Integration: I seamlessly migrate historical data from legacy shared drives and local Excel files into structured SharePoint Lists, eliminating version-control issues. I also embed dynamic Power BI dashboards directly into SharePoint for instant, data-driven visibility. 🚀 Proven Track Record Includes: Built a Candidate Tracking App that eliminated manual spreadsheet tracking and cut recruitment processing times by 40%. Architected a Full HR SharePoint Hub, migrating legacy files, setting up strict permission matrices, and training staff on platform adoption. Designed a Training Records App that completely migrated static Excel logs into secure SharePoint Lists for real-time reporting. Automated Cross-Platform Workflows saving internal communication teams roughly 89% of the time previously spent on manual distribution. Whether you need a straightforward SharePoint site setup, an automated approval flow, or a comprehensive Power Apps build, I deliver clean, scalable, and secure workspaces on schedule. Have any questions or want to see a live demonstration of what these automation tools can do inside SharePoint? Let’s chat about your project!
