01 What I do
AI Automation
Automate the repetitive — intake, follow-ups, reporting, and the workflows that quietly eat a small team's week — wired together with AI so you move faster.
Custom AI Solutions
Bespoke AI built around your business: assistants trained on your own docs, document pipelines, and small apps tailored to how you actually operate.
Data & Analytics
Turn messy data into clear decisions — dashboards, KPIs, and reporting that leadership actually reads, drawn from a decade close to the numbers.

04 About
I'm a data scientist by training and an AI builder by obsession. I studied Econometrics at Minerva University and have spent years turning data into decisions — from running analytics at a challenger bank to being the first and only data scientist at a startup that grew from 10 to 120 people.
Today I manage Latin American enrollment at Minerva, where I live in the reporting and data-ops layer of the university. On the side, I help small businesses automate the boring parts of their work and build custom AI solutions that fit how they actually operate — including my own app for my own company.
