Most people hate working with spreadsheets, but I love it! It puts me into flow state. I first realized I had a special talent for it while working for The Princeton Review, a tutoring company. I had developed a reputation as the "Excel Guy" in my office, so one Friday, one of my colleagues asked me whether there was a way she could quickly see in a spreadsheet which of the tutors we have on staff lived closest to a newly onboarded tutoring student. I thought about the problem, and it turned out to be quite the challenge. I couldn't stop thinking about it, even after I got home that evening, so I decided to keep working on it. One hour melted into the next, and before I knew it, it was Sunday afternoon, and I had built her a fully fledged system for assigning tutors to tutorials, including the ability to automatically calculate the exact distance between the tutors on our staff and a new student (and to filter down to only show tutors within a certain distance). I was so proud of it that I just lay on my bed, staring at my laptop screen for a good 30 minutes. To be fair, that could have just been the daze of working on an Excel project for two days straight. The next day, I showed my colleague the fully functional system I'd built her, complete with a tutor search tool and tutorial profitability calculator. She was ecstatic - so excited in fact, that she showed the tool I'd built to her colleagues at several other local offices, many of whom copied and started using the system themselves. That was ten years ago, and my love and talent for building useful spreadsheet systems has only grown. In early 2026, I started selling my selling my services on Upwork, and have helped several small businesses upgrade their day-to-day operations by building them tools in Excel and Google Sheets. Some of the systems I've built include: An inventory management system for a local plumbing company that sends automated email and Slack notifications when supplies are running low on their service trucks. An elegant, simple-to-use technician scorecard for a window cleaning business that reports employee and company performance. A sophisticated deal management system for a real estate land fund. My client had a complex workbook with tabs corresponding to all of his different prospective land deals. I helped him standardize these tabs and built an external, investor-facing workbook that only shows investors the deal information he wants them to see, while keeping his internal notes private. A CFO-level dashboard for a construction company showing high-level and granular details about sales and operational performance. And more! Check out my reviews: my clients have unanimously given me 5-star ratings and say that I am detail oriented, professional, and that I go above and beyond. I am committed to ensuring that my clients get real value for the money they pay, and that the systems I built are durable, easy to use, and well-documented, so that clients can continue to reap the benefits of my work well after our contract has ended. I charge $75 per hour, but am open to negotiating project rates on a case by case basis.
