See how it works

A complex process, made simple

One complete run of an AI support system I build — fourteen steps, one calm pipeline, a human in control.

What I do

Four ways I help teams work faster

Every project starts with a real process that is slow, manual, or error-prone — and ends with something the team actually uses.

Lead Generation & Research

Companies that are hiring, the people who decide, and verified contact details — delivered clean into your CRM or sheet.

  • Sales Navigator & Apollo.io
  • Email & phone verification
  • CRM audits (Bullhorn)
  • Market research reports

Workflow Automation

n8n workflows that connect Gmail, Google Sheets, CRMs, and APIs — with error handling and human approval steps where they matter.

  • n8n & webhooks
  • REST API integrations
  • Google Workspace
  • Apify scraping

AI Agents & RAG

AI agents that answer from your own knowledge base, call live tools through MCP, and escalate to a human instead of guessing.

  • RAG with Pinecone / Supabase
  • MCP servers & clients
  • Prompt design
  • Human-in-the-loop

Internal Tools & Data

Custom CRMs, scrapers, trackers, and data-cleaning pipelines for recruitment and lead-generation teams.

  • PHP / MySQL apps
  • Python scrapers
  • Data validation & cleaning
  • Reporting

Background

From credit analysis to AI automation
