build what happens behind it

Automation & Integrations | Conversion Funnel Design | CRM & Workflow

I work across landing pages, sales funnels, CRM and workflow automation. I use GoHighLevel, Systeme.io, n8n, Make, and Zapier, and use HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to extend and customize what the platforms can do.

With over 14 years of technical experience, I bring a strong background in troubleshooting and problem solving, with a practical approach to the work.

Working Together

A few words from people I've worked with.

"The proposal and strategy fit what we had in mind and felt right for our audience. I really appreciated the thought and effort that went into the project."
"We’ve had some bad experiences with freelancers before, so we were careful about who we worked with. We receive a lot of funnel proposals, but most of them look very similar to what we’ve already tried. His proposal stood out because the strategy was different, and after our call, we decided to work together."
"A friend recommended him to me, and I reached out because I wasn’t happy with how my current funnel was working. After talking through it, I felt like he understood what I was trying to fix, so I decided to have him work on my next projects as well."
"What I appreciated was being able to ask questions even after the project was finished and still get a straight answer. I never felt like I was left to figure things out on my own."

Let's build a funnel that actually works.
