Twelve years ago I was configuring OpenERP v7 for live clients while most of the world was still figuring out what it was. Today that platform is Odoo โ and I've delivered on every major version since, through v19, both Community and Enterprise.
That's not seniority for its own sake. It means I've seen every architectural shift this platform has made, navigated every version migration, and built production systems that actually run businesses โ not demo environments that look good in a presentation.
I hold an official Odoo Partnership and have delivered implementations across retail, ecommerce, construction, hospitality, manufacturing, field services, and enterprise finance for businesses in UAE, UK, and international markets. I've also served as a Visiting Lecturer at Bahria University teaching Odoo, ERP Systems, and Business Process Automation to postgraduate students โ which means I can build your system and explain it clearly to your team.
Here is what clients hire me for:
โบ ODOO IMPLEMENTATION
CRM, Sales, Inventory, Accounting, Purchase, Manufacturing, POS, HR, and Projects โ configured correctly, customised where needed, data migrated, users trained, and supported until it genuinely works. Not just until go-live. From single-entity startups to multi-branch enterprise operations.
โบ ODOO DEVELOPMENT & CUSTOMISATION
Custom modules, QWeb report templates, OWL JavaScript components, custom workflows, and backend Python development. I build what the native platform can't do out of the box โ without creating upgrade problems down the line.
โบ ODOO WEBSITE & ECOMMERCE
You bring a design reference or a rough idea โ I build it exactly in Odoo. Custom page templates, payment gateway integration, subscription products, and full mobile responsiveness. Built properly, not patched together.
โบ ODOO RECONFIGURATION & RESCUE
Already live on Odoo but the system never kept pace with your business growth? Manual workarounds now embedded in daily operations? I audit what exists, find the root causes, and fix it properly without starting from scratch. Currently delivering exactly this for a UK ecommerce retailer at ยฃ8m+ annual revenue.
โบ MAKE dot COM / n8n AUTOMATION & AI WORKFLOWS
I connect Odoo with your external tools and eliminate the manual work your team shouldn't be doing. AI-powered document processing, automated invoicing, WhatsApp notifications, lead capture workflows, CRM triggers, and supplier communication automation โ built in Make dot com and connected to Odoo as your operational core. If your business process can be described, it can be automated.
โบ API & SYSTEM INTEGRATION
Odoo connected to Magento, SAP, QuickBooks, payment gateways, WhatsApp Business API, and custom external systems. REST, JSON-RPC, XML-RPC โ clean integrations built to last. I've delivered Odoo-to-SAP live bidirectional integration for a manufacturing client and payment automation for high-volume ecommerce operations.
โบ UAE FTA E-INVOICING COMPLIANCE
Currently leading live FTA E-Invoicing implementations across multiple UAE legal entities. UBL/XML schema mapping, multi-entity compliance configuration, and go-live support. If your UAE business hasn't started this yet โ the deadline is closer than you think.
โบ ORACLE EPM FCCS
Financial consolidation, intercompany eliminations, close management, and regulatory reporting for enterprise finance teams who need this done right the first time.
WHY CLIENTS CHOOSE ME OVER OTHER CONSULTANTS:
Most Odoo consultants know one layer โ either configuration or development. I know both. More importantly, I understand how businesses actually operate โ which means the system I build reflects your real workflows, not a generic ERP template applied to your business regardless of fit.
I work with a limited number of clients at any time to protect quality. I communicate proactively, flag blockers early, and deliver on time. I tell you what you need to hear โ not what you want to hear.
Before any billable work begins I offer a free discovery session and a free live demo so we're completely aligned on scope and approach before a single dollar is committed. No surprises mid-project. No disappearing after go-live.
If you are evaluating Odoo, mid-project and stuck, facing an FTA deadline, drowning in manual processes that should be automated, or need a system integration that actually works โ send me a message. First conversation is a real consultation, not a sales pitch.

Make dot com | n8n | AI Workflow Automation

Most businesses don't have a technology problem. They have a process problem that technology can solve, if it's configured the right way.
I've spent 15 years figuring out exactly how to do that.
I'm a Microsoft-certified consultant specializing in Power Platform, Dynamics 365, and Copilot Studio. I work with businesses across the GCC and globally to replace manual, fragmented processes with structured, automated systems that actually get used.
122 completed projects. $300K+ in earned work. 100% Job Success Score. I don't just build. I consult first, build second, and stay until it works.
What I help with:
Power Apps: canvas and model-driven apps built around how your team actually works
Power Automate: end-to-end automation, approval flows, and RPA
Power BI: dashboards that give leadership real visibility, not just data
Copilot Studio: AI agents for internal ops, HR, and customer-facing use cases
Dynamics 365: CRM, Sales, and F&O implementations from scratch or optimized
SharePoint & M365: modern workspace setup and governance
My approach: before I write a single line of configuration, I want to understand your process. What's breaking, what's manual, what's costing you time. Then I map out the simplest Power Platform solution that solves it, not the most impressive one.
Tell me what's not working in your business. I'll tell you honestly whether Power Platform can fix it and what it would realistically take.

I am a Product Designer and Manager who designs and ships AI-powered digital products (web, mobile, and internal tools) for startups and growing businesses. My work combines UX strategy, interface design, and no-code/low-code automation to deliver products that users love and that teams can actually operate.
โ
Over the past decade, I have led end-to-end delivery of products across fintech, health, and web3, increasingly focused on AI-enabled experiences such as AI voice agents, intelligent lead capture flows, recommendation systems, and internal productivity tools. I handle everything from discovery and product strategy to UX/UI, scoping, and collaborating with engineering to get features shipped on time.
โ
What you get when we work together:
- Clear product strategy that connects business goals to user needs and measurable outcomes
- UX research, wireframes, and polished UI designs ready for development
- AI feature definition (prompts, workflows, data flows, guardrails) integrated into your existing stack
- Structured roadmaps, documentation, and analytics loops to iterate and improve over time
โ
I use tools like Figma, Sketch and Stitch for design and platforms like n8n, Make, Zapier, and AI APIs (voice, text, and vision) to prototype and launch quickly. Whether you need a new AI-powered product from scratch or want to layer intelligence into an existing product, I help you reduce risk and ship faster.
