I help law firms, construction companies, and professional services teams bring order to daily operations and project delivery using Microsoft 365 and AI. If your team lives in Outlook, Teams, and SharePoint but work still feels reactive, projects slip, and nothing talks to anything else, the issue is not effort. It is the absence of a connected system. Most teams are stuck in the same patterns. Email threads that should be tasks. Files scattered across three places. New clients that require manual setup from scratch. Disconnected tools that force your team to act as the connector between systems that should do that automatically. I build connected Microsoft 365 systems where operations run consistently, projects execute predictably, and AI handles the routing, risk flagging, and administrative work so your team focuses on delivery. What I Build 📌 Operational Systems That Run Consistently 🔹 Intake processes for clients, matters, jobs, or requests 🔹 Onboarding workflows that trigger automatically 🔹 Approvals, reviews, and handoffs built into the system 📌 Structured Project Management 🔹 Defined phases with clear ownership and deadlines 🔹 Automatic SharePoint folders and permissions on project creation 🔹 Templates that eliminate setup time and enforce consistency 📌 Connected Systems 🔹 CRM, email, project, and file systems linked into one flow 🔹 Projects and folders created automatically when work begins 🔹 Information entered once and used everywhere it is needed 📌 AI Agents for Intake, Routing, and Risk 🔹 Monitor email, forms, and documents for incoming work 🔹 Route and convert inputs into tasks with ownership and dates 🔹 Flag risk, overdue work, and missed handoffs before they become problems 🔹 Recommend next steps based on where work stands 📌 File and Permission Systems 🔹 Files organized by client, matter, or project automatically 🔹 Permissions applied on creation with no manual setup 🔹 Everything stays inside Microsoft 365 📌 Visibility Across Operations and Projects 🔹 What is on track, what is slipping, where risk exists 🔹 No spreadsheets or status meetings required How This Is Different ✅ Built for both operations and projects ✅ Connected workflows instead of isolated tools ✅ AI that acts on information, flags risk, and recommends next steps ✅ Designed around how professional services teams think Clients → Matters or Jobs → Tasks → Files ✅ Fully Microsoft 365 native using Teams, SharePoint, Outlook, and Copilot Studio Best Fit Clients ✔ Law firms managing matter workflows and daily operations ✔ Construction and specialty contractors running multiple jobs ✔ Consulting, accounting, and agency teams delivering client work ✔ Microsoft 365 first organizations tired of disconnected tools ✔ Teams that want AI working for them, not sitting unused Tools 🧩 Microsoft 365, Teams, SharePoint, Outlook 🧩 Power Automate 🧩 Copilot Studio for AI agent deployment 🧩 Power Apps when needed If you want operations and projects that run predictably inside Microsoft 365 with AI that drives execution before things slip, send a message and let’s build a system your team can rely on.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
