I build AI voice agents, WhatsApp and ManyChat follow-up, and connected CRM workflows for clinics, agencies, and service businesses. From first enquiry to booking and handoff, I help the tools work together.

Tell me what you need, which tools you use, and where the workflow gets stuck. I’ll reply personally.

Email routing & record matching

The problem

Incoming requests needed to reach the right person. Duplicate processing, inconsistent matches, and missed emails made the workflow harder to trust.

My contribution

Refined Make scenarios with subject filters, email-based matching in Google Sheets, duplicate checks, and fallback routing. Troubleshot expired connections and requests that did not process as expected.

THE PRACTICAL CHANGE

Matching uses an email address instead of a first name, with clearer rules for processing and routing requests.

See the implementation details
  • Case-insensitive subject-prefix checks to identify relevant requests.
  • Trimmed lookup values and matched against a dedicated name-and-email table.
  • Reviewed repeat processing when changing the Gmail trigger.
  • Added routing logic for different service categories and unmatched records.

Conversation recovery & booking follow-up

The problem

People paused during automated conversations, returned through ads, or booked a consultation. Follow-up needed to account for where each person was in the process.

My contribution

Configured and tested recovery flows, tags, waiting periods, and booking-link placement. Used Make for appointment-reminder logic and refined how follow-up works around AI conversation steps.

DESIGN FOCUS

Use conversation and booking state to decide the next action, with short reminders and a clear path to a consultation.

See the workflow details
  • Reminder timing and re-entry behaviour have been iterated through testing.
  • Booking reminders and conversation recovery are separate workflow concerns.
  • Zoho CRM fields capture customer concerns, channels, and consultation details.
  • Tested conversation timing and refined the handling of AI steps.

INDEPENDENT DEVELOPMENT

A voice AI platform
built across the stack.

A browser voice agent exploring speech recognition, AI responses, and spoken replies, with a US Twilio calling integration tested during development.

Independent project

Listen. Understand. Respond.

My work includes the voice pipeline, hosting, telephony integration, and the platform’s admin interface. The development work spans speech input, AI responses, voice output, and call handling.

From a scraped job post to a proposal draft.

My contribution

Connected scraped job details to proposal generation and document output. A person reviews the draft and copies it into Upwork for submission.

Explore the workflow
  • Use collected job-post information as the drafting input.
  • Generate a proposal based on the job requirements.
  • Make the draft available in a document for review and copying.
  • Keep the final submission with the person applying.

HOSPITALITYClient work

Guest replies with a human review step

A hospitality team needed help drafting guest replies using reservation context, while keeping the manager in control.

My contribution

Developed parts of a WhatsApp and Hostaway workflow, including reservation-access troubleshooting and a reply-review interface. Replies remain drafts for the manager to review and edit.

CRM & CUSTOMER RECORDSClient work

A lead record that grows with the conversation

A hair-care business needed its CRM to capture details gradually as a customer shared their concern and moved toward a consultation.

My contribution

Configured Zoho lead fields, sources, statuses, channels, and consultation details. Refined field mapping and Deluge logic for customer concerns as the ManyChat-to-CRM integration evolved.

AI email handling with clearer decision rules

An email assistant needed to handle message context correctly, including when to reply and when no response was needed.

My contribution

Troubleshot AI email workflows and reviewed prompts, model settings, no-reply classification, attachments, and reply-address handling. Investigated filters and processing failures as part of workflow maintenance.

WORKFLOW WALKTHROUGH / 02

A good workflow knows
when to follow up.

Explore a simplified example of the decisions behind a consultation flow. This is an illustrative demo using sample events.

CHOOSE A CUSTOMER EVENT

No live messages or CRM changes. The example explains workflow logic.

EVENT: CONVERSATION PAUSED

Check before sending a reminder.

  1. 01
    Check the latest activity

    Has the customer replied since the wait began?

  2. 02
    Check the booking & messaging rules

    Only continue if no booking exists and follow-up is permitted.

  3. 03
    Send one relevant reminder

    Record the action so the same reminder is not sent twice.

NEXT ACTION

A short follow-up, only when the checks pass.

WORKING TOGETHER / 03

Start with the problem.
Make the next step clear.

Work directly with me on a new build, a specific integration, or automation support for your team or agency.

01 / UNDERSTAND

Map what should happen.

Review your current tools, the manual steps, and the exception cases. Agree on the scope before building.

02 / IMPLEMENT

Connect the moving parts.

Build the workflow with clear conditions, consistent records, and a way to handle errors or hand work to a person.

03 / VERIFY & HAND OVER

Test it with real scenarios.

Check the normal path and the things that can go wrong. Explain how the workflow operates and what to monitor.
