Why focused tech projects make a big difference

Many businesses run on spreadsheets, email, and people remembering what to do next. That works, until it doesn't. Whether you need to get online with a professional website, ensure mobile customers can find and use your site, automate repetitive tasks, or connect your systems—I learn how your business actually runs, then design small, low-risk projects that deliver real value. Instead of a big transformation, we focus on targeted improvements that fit how your team already works.

How I help organizations work smarter

Delivered Outcome
Automation Discovery Understand current workflows, tools, and pain points. Map where time is lost or errors occur and identify high-impact automation opportunities.
Prototype Development Turn ideas into small working solutions quickly. May involve internal tools, workflow automation, or system connectors.
Website Development & Design Get online with a professional, mobile-responsive website that helps customers find you, understand what you do, and contact you easily. Essential for organizations who need to be found online.
Mobile Optimization & Local SEO Ensure your website works perfectly on phones (where most customers search) and appears in local search results when customers look for services in your area.
Workflow and System Integration Connect the tools you already use to remove double-entry and reduce manual work.
Scale-Up and Delivery Management If a prototype works, I can harden it or manage internal/external developers to deliver the full version.

Selected Engagements

Experience that translates into practical technology solutions

1
Turning manual processes into structured, automated workflows
Experience designing workflow systems that replaced spreadsheet-driven, ad-hoc processes with predictable, trackable pipelines. This supports organizations that need clear handoffs, fewer errors, and less time spent coordinating routine tasks.
2
Creating lightweight data pipelines and reporting tools
Background building data flows and reporting interfaces for research and trading teams. Applied broadly, this becomes simple, reliable automation that unifies information from multiple tools and produces reports without manual effort.
3
Prototyping new tools to validate ideas quickly
Hands-on prototyping experience used to test technical and product concepts in complex environments. For organizations, this means small, fast prototypes that prove value before any major investment in full-scale development.
4
Integrating tools to eliminate double-entry and admin friction
Experience connecting internal and external platforms so information moves automatically. Organizations benefit from integrations that link CRMs, forms, finance tools, and spreadsheets into a smoother end-to-end workflow.
5
Building professional websites and optimizing online presence for local businesses
Creating mobile-responsive websites and optimizing local search visibility for businesses across the Southeast. This includes ensuring websites work perfectly on phones, appear in local search results, and help customers find and contact businesses easily.
E7N client meeting
  • Discovery call A short, focused conversation to understand your business and determine where technology can help—whether that's getting online, automating workflows, or both. I ask about your current workflows, pain points, and goals. You get honest feedback on what makes sense and what a realistic first step might look like. No obligation, no sales pitch, just clarity.
  • Workflow review If we decide to move forward, I spend time understanding how your business actually operates. This means looking at the tools you use, the tasks that eat up time, and the handoffs where things slip through cracks. The output is a clear map of where small automation wins can make the biggest difference.
  • Prototype sprint A time-boxed, cost-controlled build of one focused solution. This might be a simple tool, a workflow connector, or a reporting dashboard. The goal is to prove value quickly before committing to anything larger. In past projects, this approach has cut time-to-value by up to 33%.*
  • Scale or stop At the end of the sprint, you have something working and a clear picture of what comes next. Either we extend the solution, hand it off, or stop with minimal sunk cost. This model has helped teams increase throughput by 50% while staying in control of scope and budget.*
