Automation · Data · Integrations
I build automations, integrations, and data cleanups that take repetitive work off your team's plate. Tell me what is eating your time. You get a fixed quote, a tested result, and plain-English instructions.
Sound familiar?
If any of these costs your team a few hours a week, it is usually worth fixing for good.
What it costs you
Move the sliders. Most teams are surprised.
600 hours of copying, pasting, checking, and chasing. Even automating half of it frees up 300 hours for work that grows the business.

Connect the tools you already use, like email, web forms, spreadsheets, CRMs, and ecommerce platforms, so information moves on its own. Built with Zapier, Make, n8n, or Python, whichever fits your budget and your team.
Example: A new web-form lead is added to your CRM, assigned to the right person, and sent a follow-up email automatically.
Messy spreadsheets, duplicate records, and exports that never line up. I clean, validate, and organize your data, then set up reports that build themselves.
Example: A weekly sales report that took half a day now lands in your inbox every Monday morning.
Processing and cleanup for geospatial data: parcels, field collection, survey points, and imagery outputs. Raw files become maps and tables people can act on.
Example: Field-collected points merged with county parcel data into one clean, usable map layer.
IVR and call-flow development, changes, testing, and production support for contact centers, from someone who did this work for more than twelve years in regulated financial services.
Example: Add a new menu path, test every branch end to end, and document the change for your team.
How it works
Email a few sentences about what is slowing you down. No sales call required.
I reply within one business day with questions or a fixed price and timeline. You know the cost before any work starts.
I learn your tools on my own time, so you never pay for my learning curve. Then I build it and test it against real examples.
You get a working result plus plain-English instructions, so it keeps running long after I am done.

I'm a retired Air Force E-6 and a licensed private pilot, and I live in Carroll, Ohio, just southeast of Columbus. I've also kept honey bees for about 15 years. It is equal parts science, problem-solving, and patience, and the bees regularly have a different plan than I do. Client systems are a lot like that. I adapt to how things actually work and keep moving until the job is finished.
Questions
Small and medium. A single automation that saves your team a few hours a week is a perfectly good first project.
A fixed price per project, agreed before any work starts. If you want ongoing support afterward, we can set up a simple monthly arrangement.
Almost all work is remote, for clients anywhere in the U.S. For on-site work I can travel within about 100 miles of Columbus, Ohio.
Usually not. I start with the tools you already pay for and only suggest something new when it clearly saves money or time.
Yes. Most of my past work is under one.
Let's talk
Send a few sentences about the problem and the tools you use today. I'll reply within one business day.
