I am a senior database, data architecture, and BI consultant with 42 years of experience designing business systems, databases, data warehouses, integrations, and analytics solutions across industries such as retail, SaaS, healthcare, asset management, banking, manufacturing, services, e-commerce, and finance.
My strongest value is connecting business needs with reliable technical architecture. I help clients move from scattered data, fragile reports, and manual processes to analytical environments that are fast, reliable, maintainable, and ready for BI or AI.
Core strengths
• Database architecture, SQL, performance tuning, and data modeling
• Data warehouse design, ETL/ELT, and automated data pipelines
• Power BI dashboards, semantic models, DAX, and Power Query
• BigQuery, SQL Server, SingleStore, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Oracle, and Microsoft Fabric
• Python, APIs, Google Cloud, AWS, Azure, and cloud-based data workflows
• KPI definition, metric validation, executive reporting, and AI-ready data layers
Unlike many dashboard-focused consultants, I come from a deep database and systems background. I design the structure behind the report: schemas, relationships, ETL routines, indexing strategy, validation rules, semantic models, and performance optimization. This helps clients avoid fragile dashboards built on messy data and instead create a solid data foundation for reporting, analytics, and AI.
AI-ready data architecture
Many companies try to connect AI directly to raw databases, but that often creates slow, expensive, and unreliable answers. My approach is different: I build governed analytical layers where definitions, relationships, KPIs, and business rules are explicit.
This improves trust, reduces cost, increases performance, and allows AI to work with business-approved metrics rather than guessing from raw tables.
Recent project examples
- Database Performance / DBA Leadership
I am responsible as DBA and Database Lead for a massive infrastructure using SingleStore and SQL Server, working at billion-record scale with the responsibility to deliver query results in less than 1 second. This involves database design, indexing strategy, stored procedures, and continuous optimization of high-volume workloads.
- AI-Connected Semantic Model with Power BI and Claude
I designed a cloud-based analytical solution using Cloud Run, Python, GitHub/Artifacts, Cloud Scheduler, BigQuery, and Power BI semantic models, enabling Claude to connect to governed business data. The solution included specialized skills to query the semantic model, respect business rules, and provide accurate answers with high performance and data reliability.
- AI Data Enrichment on Google Cloud
I designed and implemented a serverless AI enrichment pipeline using Google Cloud Run, Cloud Tasks, Cloud Scheduler, Python, and BigQuery. The client needed to enrich millions of company records using GROK AI within a tight processing window while controlling BigQuery costs. The result was millions of enrichment tasks completed within SLA, stable throughput, structured validation, and more than 90% reduction in BigQuery costs.
- IoT Data Aggregation with BigQuery
I built a Google Cloud solution to collect high-frequency sensor data from thousands of sensors through an API every three minutes. The architecture used Cloud Run, Python, GitHub/Artifacts, Cloud Scheduler, and BigQuery, creating an automated and scalable data warehouse process running for months without manual intervention.
- SaaS Product Analytics
For a SaaS company, I transformed complex Firebase / Firestore JSON data into structured analytical tables in BigQuery. I created the ETL routines, designed the analytical foundation, and delivered Power BI dashboards for product usage, engagement, trial behavior, feature adoption, and conversion analysis.
- Retail Operations Reporting
I built an automated reporting system for a large restaurant chain, processing POS data with Python ETL, cloud automation, AWS infrastructure, and Power BI applications. The system delivered daily KPI reporting for sales, revenue, labor, service times, customer behavior, and operational performance.
- Asset Management Analytics
I developed a portfolio monitoring solution using Python ETL, Reorg API, AWS, database design, and Power BI. The solution tracked liquidity, EBITDA, leverage, and other investment KPIs, giving the client daily updated information for portfolio analysis and decision-making.

I direct cinematic AI campaigns — from character creation to final frame.
AI generates content. Direction gives it memory.
I work as a creative director translating human intention into form, through an AI pipeline I've built over ten years across fashion, luxury, and brand strategy. Concept, casting, character design, wardrobe, lighting, camera language, color grading, editorial post-production — the same decisions a creative director makes on set, executed with AI tools.
My method: question → decompose → connect → test → synthesize.
I don't start from a prompt. I start from what the project wants to say.
What that looks like in practice:
→ A fashion brand needs a campaign but has no budget for a shoot. I create the model, the wardrobe, the set, and deliver 24 editorial images with full visual consistency — like PIETRA, my AI-directed collection featuring Bottega Veneta pieces.
→ An independent film needs cinematic promotional content. I direct 30-90s sequences with character consistency, atmosphere, and emotional pacing — recently produced a cinematic retail campaign in 4K Kling (link in portfolio).
→ A brand wants a persistent character or AI avatar. I build recurring identity — same face, same body, same presence across scenes, platforms, and formats.
→ An agency needs a visual system. I deliver mood boards, lookbooks, brand imagery, and campaign direction — one director, one pipeline.
I also write scripts, produce original soundtracks, and create AI voiceovers with custom voice cloning. Full audio layer, not just visuals.
Cinema stack: Midjourney, Flux, Kling, Higgsfield, Veo, Runway.
Audio stack: ElevenLabs, Suno.
Post stack: DaVinci Resolve, CapCut Pro.

Hello! I’m Andreia ☀️
I’m a Portuguese professional with a degree in Communication and Digital Marketing and over 8 years of experience across digital marketing, media buying, fashion, and e-commerce support.
For the past 6 years, I’ve been working as a Media Buyer for EU and LATAM markets, managing and optimizing paid ad campaigns to increase reach, conversions, and ROI. I’m highly experienced with Meta Ads Manager, audience targeting, performance analysis, and campaign optimization.
I also have solid experience in the fashion industry, having worked as a Store Manager and Fashion Consultant for 3 years. In this role, I supported brands and clients with sales strategy, styling, visual merchandising, trend analysis, and content creation for social media, always aligned with brand identity and customer behavior.
In addition to media buying, I offer:
Fashion consulting (branding, styling, visual merchandising, content direction)
Translation, proofreading, and localization (EN–PT / PT–EN)
Social Media Management
Customer Support for e-commerce brands
Email marketing and funnel support
I’m proficient with various tools, including Ad Manager, Shopify, ClickFunnels, Stripe, HubSpot, Slack, Trello, and SimilarWeb.
I’m detail-oriented, organized, and creative, with a strong strategic mindset. I enjoy projects that combine fashion, marketing, and communication to create impactful and measurable results.
I’d love to learn more about your project and how I can contribute.
Best regards,
Andreia

I build AI workflows that already run a real business: my own. Claude searches listings daily, drafts documents in my voice, logs everything to a Notion tracker, and sends me a weekly market report, without my attention. I set up the same kind of systems for small businesses, in plain language and without code.
What that looks like in practice: I start with the tools you already have rather than selling you new ones. I set up Claude or ChatGPT with persistent instructions and style guides so the output stays consistent, connect them to Notion, Google Drive, Gmail, Google Calendar and hundreds of other apps through connectors and Zapier, and build scheduled tasks that run on their own. Every setup includes a human approval step where it matters, a short written guide for the person who will actually use it, and a clear note on maintenance, because every connection is one more thing that can break, and sometimes copy-paste is the better answer. If AI will not help in some area, I will tell you that too.
Why me and not a developer? I ran a multi-channel e-commerce business for several years (eBay, Etsy, Vinted, Catawiki and others): listings, customer service, disputes, Excel administration, and VAT and customs paperwork across two countries. I know the repetitive work that eats a small business owner's week, because it used to eat mine.
On precision: in my current role as a content analyst I review content against strict guidelines, with a 100% quality-audit score across 200+ audited cases. That work taught me where AI output is reliable and where a person has to stay in the loop. I hold two AI certificates (Prompt Engineering Foundation and Generative AI Fundamentals, Cognizant, 2025) and work with Excel, SQL and Python at a practical level.
Alongside automation work I take on native Dutch translation and proofreading (English and German into Dutch), including editing AI-generated Dutch until it reads like a person wrote it.
I am based in the EU (CET) and work in English, Dutch (native) and German. Tell me which task steals the most of your week, and I will tell you honestly whether AI can take it over.
Why this shape: concrete systems in sentence one (proof before claims), the operator story as the differentiator against the developer crowd, your one verifiable metric kept, translation demoted to one sentence, and the same honest-scoping voice that your Claude-consultant proposal already uses. No em dashes, no buzzwords, no bullet lists.

Most n8n and AI automation projects fail within 90 days - built fast, not built right.
We're 2V Automation, a 30-person team and n8n Certified Expert Partner, building production-grade AI agents, workflows and API integrations for SMBs, agencies, and service businesses that survive past month three.
I'm Valerian.
I run 2V Automation, a 30-person team.
We do AI and workflow automation for service businesses, and we do it the way most don't.
ENGINEERING DISCIPLINE OVER VIBES
20 years of writing software before AI was a marketing category.
We treat automation like production code: error handling, logging, alerts, version control, real testing. Not "it worked when I clicked run".
SIMPLE BEFORE CLEVER
The shortest workflow that solves your problem is almost always the right one. Each new node is another point of failure, another paid API, another thing your ops team won't understand in 6 months. We push back when clients ask for the complicated version.
DISCOVERY FIRST, ALWAYS
Most clients want to "automate everything". Almost nobody actually needs that.
We do focused discovery (2-3 weeks, fixed fee), find the 3-5 places where automation pays back fast, and propose a phased plan. You keep the document whether you continue or not.
PILOT BEFORE BUILD-OUT
Whatever discovery surfaces, we ship the single highest-ROI piece first.
If the pilot doesn't pay back, the next phases probably won't either. Better to find that out in week 6 than month 12.
CREDENTIALS
$1M+ delivered on Upwork. 14,912 hours. 100% Job Success. Top Rated Plus. n8n Certified Expert Partner.
A real team: engineers, PMs, designers, QA.
Not a solo founder with a Loom video.
WHO THIS IS FOR
10-200 person service businesses (consulting, agencies, finance, professional services).
Founders and operators who've done the math on what manual work is costing them and are ready to fix it properly.
WHO IT ISN'T FOR
People shopping on price.
People who want "an AI that runs everything by Friday".
People who've already decided what should be automated and just need hands.
We're not those hands.
If you're the first kind, send me a paragraph:
What your business does, what's broken or expensive.
I'll tell you within a day whether discovery is worth doing.
