What I'm looking for

I seek an entry-level AI role in a collaborative, growth-oriented company where I can apply my client-facing commercial skills and hands-on AI tool experience to build automation and agents that deliver measurable business value.

I am an adaptable professional transitioning from real estate sales into applied AI development, focused on building practical agents and automation that drive measurable business impact. I combine strong client relationship management, negotiation experience, and data-driven decision-making with hands-on AI tool creation.

I have developed company research agents, lead-generation copilots, pre-call report generators, and personal assistants while practising prompt optimisation, multi-LLM strategies, and workflow automation using Firecrawl, N8N, Voiceflow, Relevance AI, and Agentive. My background in market research, valuations, and stakeholder engagement informs pragmatic, customer-aligned AI solutions.

I learn quickly, mentor colleagues, and thrive under pressure, seeking an entry-level AI role where I can apply transferable commercial skills and growing technical expertise to help build and scale intelligent systems.
