I've Been Building This Stuff Since Before It Had a Name.

Self-taught since 2013. AI automation consultant, YouTube educator, and the person businesses call when they want systems that actually work in production.

How I got here.

From one blog in 2013 to the work I do today.

  1. 2013

    A blog, and no tech background

    I didn't come from a tech background. No CS degree. No bootcamp. No one who showed me how any of this works. But since 2013 I've been building things on the internet, starting with a blog that hit 1 million page views before I even understood what a CMS was.

  2. The build years

    Building everything myself

    What drove all of it was simple: I hate doing the same thing twice if a system can do it for me. That obsession didn't come from reading about productivity or following a trend. It came from genuinely not wanting to waste time on tasks that could be automated.

    Over the years I built CRMs, websites, small SaaS tools, automation scripts, all of it self-taught, all of it shipped and used by real people. Every project taught me something the tutorials didn't cover, because tutorials rarely show you what breaks in production.

  3. AI arrives

    Going deep on AI

    When AI tools started maturing, I went deep. Not to follow the hype cycle, but because I could see clearly that the people who understood these systems early would have a serious edge over everyone who didn't. And the useful information (the practical stuff, the real implementation details) was mostly gatekept behind paywalls or buried in docs nobody bothers to explain properly.

    Sharing everything on YouTube

    So I started sharing everything I learned. Every n8n workflow I built. Every mistake I made. Every shortcut I found. That became my YouTube channel: 5,800+ subscribers, 47 tutorials and over 545,000 views, all free, all built around real use cases.

  5. Then

    Viewers became clients

    The consulting work grew out of that. People who watched the tutorials started reaching out: “Love the content, can you just build this for us?” So I do. The same systems I teach publicly, I build privately for businesses that need them deployed properly.

    Brands started asking too

    My first video made with a brand went up. 15+ brands have worked with me since, and Higgsfield, MiniMax and Akool came back for more.

    How I work

    I don't gatekeep. I don't oversell. And I build everything the way I'd want it built if it were my own business.

What I do now.

I build for businesses, teach on YouTube, make videos for AI brands and ship my own tools.

The Same Systems I Teach, Built for Your Business.

See client work

AI Automation Workflows

Custom n8n and Make pipelines that connect your tools, route leads, trigger follow-ups, and handle repetitive operations, built and deployed in production.

Custom Websites

Conversion-focused websites with admin panels, chatbots, and automation built in, not bolted on afterwards. Built to be managed by you, not by a developer.

CRM Systems

End-to-end CRM builds with lead management, team permissions, attendance tracking, and pipeline visibility, so you can finally see what's happening in your sales.

AI Content Systems

Self-hosted open-source model pipelines for content generation, scheduling, and publishing. One Google Sheet update, everything else runs automatically.

Why I Teach Publicly

I Learned Everything the Hard Way. You Don't Have To.

Nobody handed me a roadmap. I figured out CRMs, automation, web development, and AI systems entirely on my own, because the people who knew weren't sharing.

That's exactly why I share everything. If you watch my tutorials, you get the actual implementation details, not just the theory. The same information I use when I'm building for clients.

Teaching publicly also keeps me accountable. If I recommend a workflow on YouTube, it has to actually work, because 5,800 people are watching. That's the standard I hold my consulting work to as well.
