Earlier in July, 2024, I began work as a part-time Analyst at Ampicap, a hedge fund in England. This firm started Quantfluence, which include the late Jim Simons of Renaissance Capital, as well as Cathie Wood and Martin Coward among its associates. Starting in May, 2021, I began work as an Asset Manager for a retired Partner from a leading law firm in Chicago, where I still work as a consultant. During the summer of 2020, I began work as a portfolio manager and Consultant for a seven figure equities portfolio held by an oil executive residing in Texas. During this time, I grew our portfolio in excess of 7% per month. I have also passed the TopStepTrader challenge (futures day trading) in Chicago five times. The folks at TopStepTrading have agreed to verify this. Since November, 2022, I have been working part-time as an Analyst for Humphreys Capital, among other firms. I am a dual Irish/American citizen, so I have no need for working papers. From October of 2019 to September, 2020, I was working as a research report writer for Aquamarine Capital, a hedge fund in Zurich. Recently, I wrote an ebook about real estate crowdfunding. I studied Economics at the University of Chicago, where I earned my degree in European Languages. I have six years’ experience at the CBOT and the CME as a Floor Trader, Floor Broker, Options Floor Trader, Upstairs Trader, Trade Analyst, and back office Trade Checker in the Financial, Currency, grain, interest rate, stock index futures and options markets, ETF and options markets. I have a solid active understanding of these markets. I was also a top staff writer at IndexFunds, arguably the number one source for information on Indexing and ETFs. This company is now called "IndexUniverse.” Also: • I co-authored the educational portion of the Charles Schwab website, authoring the courses "Asset Allocation" and "Selecting a Mutual Fund." Before my ventures into the markets, I taught foreign languages for four years at Brown University and Phillips Academy, Andover; I also lectured in European history at Brown. Of course, nobody sweats the grammatical details like a Latin teacher. In 2013, I completed a total reworking of a website for Morgan Stanley. Recently, I have written an eBook for Baron Capital Management, in New York. Before that, I worked as a Web Strategist, Marketing Analyst, and Copywriter for futuresknowledge in Edmonton, Alberta. I have written about 20 of the articles on this site. My formal education in Finance, Economics, and global markets continued at the Chicago Board of Trade Institute of Finance, where I completed three years of study, completing 10 courses, among them Financial Futures, Finance, and Advanced Options.

I BUILD AI SYSTEMS THAT CLOSE THE GAP BETWEEN WHAT YOUR TOOLS COULD DO AND WHAT ACTUALLY GETS DONE.
⭐ Top Rated on Upwork, 5.0 across 135 jobs
🌎 US Citizen based in the Philippines (GMT+8) | Working AU & US Hours
Most business owners didn't sign up to be human middleware between a dozen tools. But here we are. You're not looking for AI. You're looking for relief.
I've spent 25+ years in information technology: managing systems, running teams, writing SOPs, handling CRM handoffs, and cleaning up the messes nobody documented. I know what automation has to survive inside because I've lived in it. I'm also a registered Anthropic (Claude) Partner, running my own practice on a custom AI operating system I built from scratch.
I'm not selling you something I haven't lived.
▌ THE REAL PROBLEM
You already know AI exists. You've probably already tried it: a "game-changing" tool that took 40 minutes to set up just to send one email. It helped a little in a demo, then it didn't deliver.
Most problems aren't really about tools. Work gets stuck between inboxes, spreadsheets, people, and decisions nobody wrote down: who owns what, what happens at the handoff, and what breaks when someone's out.
What you actually needed wasn't another tool. It was someone to build the right thing for your specific situation, keep your judgment where it belongs, and make sure the system keeps running when you're busy running your business.
That's a different skillset. That's what I do.
▌ WHAT I ACTUALLY BUILD (AND THE PROOF)
🧠 AI OPERATING SYSTEMS, BUILT FOR THE CLIENT (NOT JUST ME): A commercial solar company's know-how lived in three people's heads and scattered files. I built an AI operating system for the team: a shared roadmap, a private idea bucket, role-based AI assistants matched to each person's job, and a read-only knowledge library from their own files. Guardrails by default: nothing regulatory or client-facing moves without a human sign-off. Still building it out with them today.
✈️ AVIATION & CRM AUTOMATION: An aviation broker was losing 15-30 minutes of hand work on every lead, tied to an office PC that had to stay on around the clock. I built n8n pipelines (Claude, HubSpot) for lead enrichment, landing-page content, and post-flight follow-ups, then moved lead intake and post-flight to run unattended in the cloud. Lead prep dropped to near-zero, and the first live cloud run proved zero duplicate replies.
🩺 HEALTHCARE ADMIN & TRIAGE: A client was drowning in 2,400 emails/month. I built a HIPAA-aware system that reads, sorts, references policies, and drafts replies (with human approval). 15 minutes per case dropped to under 2. The 48-hour backlog vanished.
🏗️ CONSTRUCTION & TRADES: Service knowledge lived in one manager's head, and hiring meant paper applications and manual checks. I audited the business with AI and built an operations manual plus two quick-start guides, so new hires and backup staff have a real playbook, not a binder nobody opens. I also built Claude-based hiring screens: I-9, drug-test, and background checks, 13 physical-capability scores, a standardized report. The HR team runs it today.
🛒 E-COMMERCE / DTC: A seven-figure supplement brand's marketing team had no process. Deadlines slipped, work overlapped. I built the editorial and campaign operation in ClickUp and ran it five years across a team of 8-15. Predictable output, less drama. (Plus hands-on Shopify, Klaviyo, and Google Ads at other DTC brands.)
▌ THE TECH STACK
▪ Agent Infrastructure: Claude Code, Claude Teams, and scheduled cloud agents (Routines) that run with no server or computer to babysit
▪ Workflows: n8n (my depth, deterministic routing), Make, Zapier, production AI agents (Hermes, OpenClaw, custom)
▪ AI Models: Claude, OpenAI, Gemini (to read, sort, draft, decide), with human approval where it matters
▪ Data & APIs: Supabase, Airtable, Postgres, Google Sheets, REST and webhook integrations, RAG
▪ CRM & Where Work Lives: HubSpot, ClickUp, Airtable, Notion, Monday, Smartsheet, Google Workspace
▌ HOW I WORK
LISTEN: I start by understanding your operations, your bottlenecks, and the work your team does that no one talks about because "it's just how it is."
BLUEPRINT: I map out the system: which agents, what they do, how they hand off, and what happens when something breaks. You get a clear document. No jargon.
BUILD: I engineer and deploy the system iteratively in your environment. You see working pieces, not a big reveal at the end.
GOVERN: Every deployment includes monitoring, guardrails, and an escalation path. If something breaks, you know about it before your clients do.

Hi!
I'm Divya. It's great to meet you and I hope we have the opportunity to work together! I'm a public health professional with 10 years of experience in 15 countries. I can analyze data and tell the story waiting to be told. I am also an avid writer and have written reports in the private, public, and international sectors. So I can do the whole process of analyzing data, creating visuals, and then developing and finalizing the report as a one stop shop. In my free time, I love to ride my bicycle and sew! Fun fact: I once rode my bicycle from NYC to SF!
