What I'm looking for

I'm looking for work where I can build automation systems, generate leads, manage client conversations, and take ownership of results. I value practical execution, independence, learning opportunities, and high-performance environments.

I'm currently building chat funnels and chatbot systems for businesses and influencers as a freelancer. I automate sales processes through Instagram DM and websites, run cold outreach by DM and email, and convert lead conversations into collaborations.

I've closed automation projects with building fees starting at €2,500, using AI tools, CRM systems, Notion, Canva, and chatbot automation platforms. I also build digital products and take ownership from lead generation through client communication and delivery.

Before automation, I spent five years self-employed as a facade specialist, managing renovation and construction projects, client communication, planning, quality, safety, and team onboarding. I bring a practical, disciplined approach and am comfortable working under pressure.
