I’m a Chemical & Process Engineer and technical consultant specializing in engineering, technical systems, and AI-powered automation. I work across chemical/process engineering, water and environmental systems, hydraulics, process modelling, data analysis, and software-enabled workflows.
I also design n8n and AI automation systems that turn complex or repetitive processes into reliable workflows. This includes API integrations, data pipelines, document processing, AI-assisted research, RFP/proposal workflows, automated reporting, dashboards, internal tools, and human-in-the-loop systems.
My advantage is that I understand the underlying technical process before automating it. I can map requirements, identify inputs and decisions, determine what should be automated versus validated, and build a practical workflow around it.
My engineering background includes work with water and wastewater treatment, hydraulic modelling, process design, environmental systems, chemical processes, technical documentation, and project management, across public-sector, commercial, research, and startup environments.
I’m particularly well suited to projects that sit between engineering, data, software, and automation—where the client needs someone who can understand the problem, design the solution, and execute it without extensive hand-holding.
If you have a technical workflow, business process, dataset, or repetitive task you want to improve or automate, I can help turn it into a structured, reliable system.

The longer, sit-down, nice to meet you version:
Hi, I'm Dan🤓
Nice to meet you!
I've built and scaled several companies to 7 & 8 figures using cutting edge automation & tools like GPT-5 , Zapier, N8N, Clio and build systems that makes managing a business easy (very easy).
Over the last 5 years I've worked with law firms & private equity as a fractional COO.
Proudly, my clients have all achieved above 80% annual revenue growth as a result of building out efficient workplace systems & automations.
I have experience building nearly every type of system, automation & Ai assistant.
My clients have automated hiring, sales, dashboards, client intake, document management & more.
These clients, on average save $75,000 per year & grow by $1M or more in the first 12 months.
The most important part for you, is that every system is easy, reliable and has a direct business impact.
Of all the automations & systems I've built, my favourites are:
- Ai intake assistant for a short staffed salon in NWT, saving them $100,000. Having an AI Receptionist to answer client calls 24/7 helped them double their monthly bookings
- Client intake, triage & CRM automation system for a law firm that saved 1000 billable hours in the first year alone.
- Client marketing campaign automation(SMS) for a national retailer, that generated 2M in the first 6 hours.
- AI executive assistant for a construction & property maintenance company that saved them $140,000 and reduced the owners working hours from 60hrs per week to 25.
I have experience with more or less *every* CRM, most legal practice management systems (think Salesforce, Clickup, Monday, Asana, Clio, Leap, Synergy) & most financial softwares.
Essentially - if you hate it, I automate it.
If you're looking for somebody who loves business automation,
while understanding how to use it so that it generates revenue or saves you time - I'm your guy.
(hey, I was a COO in private equity, gotta know those numbers🤓)
Whether you work with me for a week, a month or a year, you'll always get fast results, (nearly) on-demand support, and high quality builds that are easy to use the whole way through.
Looking forward to meeting you!
