I’m a 3D Fashion Designer and Digital Garment Developer specializing in CLO3D, with professional experience in apparel development, technical design, and working with factories.
I combine creative design with a strong technical approach, focusing not only on how a garment looks in 3D, but also on its construction, fit, proportions, materials, and production requirements.
I create detailed 3D garments in CLO3D, realistic fabric simulations, and professional technical drawings in Illustrator. My experience working with factories allows me to approach each project with a clear understanding of how a design needs to be communicated for further development and production.
I work closely with clients throughout the process, paying attention to details, references, corrections, and technical requirements to ensure the final result accurately reflects the original concept.
Services include:
• 3D garment development in CLO3D
• Technical drawings and fashion flats
• Realistic fabric and garment simulation
• Digital prototyping and fit development
• Concept-to-3D garment development
• Technical preparation for production
• Fashion visualization and presentation
My approach is precise, detail-oriented, and collaborative — combining fashion aesthetics with technical knowledge to create garments that are not only visually realistic but also thoughtfully developed.

I automate operations end to end for distributors and multichannel e-commerce teams — quote to order, order to fulfilment, fulfilment to invoice and reconciliation. Make (Integromat), n8n, and Airtable systems that stop your staff re-typing data between Shopify, Amazon, Bol, QuickBooks, and email.
Most automation freelancers know the tools. Fewer have run the operations underneath them.
I spent 12 years in supply chain, logistics, and digital operations before moving into automation full-time — Accenture, ToolsGroup, driveMybox, and MSC Mediterranean Shipping, as a business analyst, product manager, and product owner on operations systems. I've been on the client side of these builds: writing the requirements, running the testing, and living with the result. I design the process first and the workflow second, which is why my builds hold up under real order volume.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
RECENT WORK
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
HVAC ProSales, Florida (ongoing)
[Airtable → Make → BigCommerce → eBay → Amazon]
4,000+ SKUs were hand-keyed into a single store. I built a structured Product Master system — API synchronisation, category and pricing governance, duplicate prevention, vendor onboarding, and order-to-invoice flow into their accounting. Product data is entered once and publishes to BigCommerce and eBay, with Amazon in progress. One sales channel became three, run by the same two-person team.
The client: "a methodical approach and focus on creating scalable systems rather than quick fixes."
Bol marketplace sellers, Netherlands
[Make → Bol → AI agents]
Inventory management across multiple stores, with AI agents handling product content generation. The operational logic runs in Make; the models do the reading and writing, not the deciding.
Jersey Print Factory, textile production
[Make → Shopify → Gmail → Google Sheets → Drive → Forms]
Order management rebuilt end to end — stock levels adjust automatically and customers get status and delay notifications without anyone writing them. They came back for ongoing support: "our order processing and notification automations have been running smoothly without interruptions."
Trust Up L3C
[Make → Airtable → Softr]
Integration across disconnected systems, with Softr interfaces so the team can act on it. Their CEO: "A brilliant system thinker… his expertise in managing complex data flows and clear communication has been invaluable."
Also recent: a multi-site content pipeline running complex AI agents across 10+ WordPress properties.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
MULTICHANNEL IS WHERE I'M STRONGEST
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, Bol, Amazon, and eBay — stock, orders, and product data staying in sync across all of them without manual re-keying. If you're selling on more than one channel and reconciling inventory by hand, that's the problem I solve most often. I work with Dutch and Belgian sellers on Bol specifically, which few automation specialists do.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
AI WHERE IT EARNS ITS PLACE
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
I build AI agents and LLM steps into operational workflows using the OpenAI API — classifying inbound orders and emails, extracting structured data from supplier documents and invoices, generating product content at volume — with the deterministic logic held in Make or n8n around them. Models are good at reading messy input. They should not be the thing your order flow depends on, and I build them so they aren't.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
WHAT I WORK WITH
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
→ Automation: Make (Level 4 – Advanced, AI Agent Builder), n8n, Zapier
→ Data & apps: Airtable (Certified Builder), Softr (Certified Professional), Google Workspace
→ Commerce: Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, Bol, Amazon, eBay
→ Finance & CRM: QuickBooks Online (ProAdvisor L1 & L2), Kommo (Official Partner), Close, Zoho
→ AI: OpenAI API, AI agent design inside operational workflows
→ Also: Slack, Intercom, WordPress, carrier and warehouse management APIs — anything with an open API
I also train teams to run what I build. Several clients have hired me specifically to bring their own staff up to speed on Make and n8n — across Close CRM, Zoho, Slack, and Google Sheets. One put it this way: "He went beyond just building workflows — he explained each step, empowering me to manage and expand the automations on my own."
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
HOW I WORK
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Fixed scope, fixed price, fixed timeline, with milestones tied to defined deliverables. We start with a short call to map where your data actually breaks, then scope from there. Most builds ship in two to eight weeks. Full documentation at handover — you own the system, not a dependency on me.
If you know what you need, message me with what's breaking and I'll tell you whether I'm the right fit.
