🏅 15+ Years Building IT Infrastructure, Cloud & Business Systems 🏅 AWS Certified Solutions Architect & Cloud Practitioner 🏅 Built and Managed Enterprise Networks, Cloud Infrastructure & Business Platforms 🏅 Designed AI-Assisted Business Automation & Operational Workflows 🏅 Trusted Technical Advisor for SMEs, Enterprise Clients & Internal Teams I help businesses replace manual work with connected systems, automation, and practical AI solutions. From workflow automation and CRM implementation to cloud infrastructure and internal tools, I build systems that reduce repetitive work, improve visibility, and help teams operate more efficiently. Over the past 15+ years I've worked across IT infrastructure, cloud engineering, technical consulting, business systems, customer operations, and workflow automation. I've designed and supported everything from enterprise networks and Microsoft 365 environments to custom CRMs, dashboards, API integrations, and AI-assisted business processes. What I can help with • Business Process Automation • Workflow Mapping & Process Improvement • AI-Assisted Internal Tools • CRM Design & Implementation • Zapier • Make • n8n • API Integrations • Microsoft 365 & Google Workspace Automation • Internal Dashboards & Reporting • Technical Documentation & SOP Creation • Cloud Infrastructure (AWS) • Website, DNS & Domain Configuration • Technical Consulting • Client Onboarding Systems • Operations Dashboards • Process Documentation I work at the intersection of technology and operations. Rather than simply building automations, I take time to understand how your business actually operates, identify bottlenecks, and design systems that your team will genuinely use. My background combines enterprise IT, cloud infrastructure, customer-facing technical consulting, and modern AI-assisted development, allowing me to bridge the gap between business requirements and technical implementation. Whether you need a workflow mapped, an internal tool built, a CRM cleaned up, or disconnected systems integrated, my goal is always the same: Build something simple, reliable, and easy to maintain.
