One messy file is enough to start: a mapping, a cleanup, missing fields, upload errors, or a catalog structure that won't behave.

Building structured, automated systems out of messy data, scattered catalogs, and one-off operational workflows. Quietly, without overengineering. The background is product data, marketplace onboarding, technical implementation, SOPs, dashboards, and the kind of operational troubleshooting that happens after a tool was supposed to "just work." That work is now paired with practical LLM tooling: Claude Code, ChatGPT, Gemini, and Google Antigravity used to ship AI-assisted Python, Apps Script, SQL, and workflow automations. Working systems instead of slide decks. The work tends to land where commercial, operations, data, and engineering teams stop talking to each other.

What the work looks like

AI Automation & Internal Tools

  • Agentic Workflows: review, enrichment, classification, and export pipelines built with AI in the loop.
  • Rapid Prototyping: Claude Code, ChatGPT, Gemini, and Google Antigravity used to ship usable internal tools fast.
  • Practical Automation: manual spreadsheet and portal work converted into repeatable flows with QA checkpoints.

eCommerce Data Operations

  • Product Data: Taxonomy mapping, category logic, attributes, SKUs, variants, feeds, images, and PIM-ready outputs.
  • Marketplace Workflows: Shopify, WooCommerce, Mirakl, Rithum/DSCO, LogicBroker, Nordstrom, Macy's, Bloomingdale's, Farfetch, and Shop Premium Outlets.
  • Implementation: CSV, XML, JSON, API, EDI, retailer templates, onboarding, validation, and troubleshooting.

Platforms & Tools

E-Commerce & Management:
Shopify, WooCommerce, Mirakl, Rithum/DSCO, Radial, LogicBroker, Cymbio App, Airtable, Asana, Monday.com.

Data & Automation:
Claude, Claude Code, ChatGPT, Gemini, Google Antigravity, AI-assisted Python automation, Advanced Excel, SQL, Power BI, Google Apps Script, Make.com, Zapier, Postman, KPI dashboards.

Professional Mindset

  • Can-Do Builder: comfortable owner of messy problems, turns ambiguity into something the next person can actually use.
  • Fast Learner: picks up new tools quickly and applies them to real operational work, not demos.
  • Team Bridge: sits between commercial, operations, product, data, and engineering, the role that translates.
  • Logic Between the Dots: finds the rules behind disconnected systems and writes them down so the workflow survives without you.

Proof of Work

Website & Marketplace Multi-Agent Scraper / PIM Export Pipeline

Website / Marketplace + PIM Export • 2026

Problem: a live product catalog needed product, variant, model, image, taxonomy, material, color, size, and multilingual metadata pulled into one PIM-ready structure.

Solution: a Python multi-agent scraper and export workflow, adaptable to website and marketplace catalogs, with discovery, enrichment, checkpoint/resume logic, dashboard monitoring, and structured CSV outputs.

Impact: 3,446 product URLs processed into 39,776 variant-level rows, ready for review, enrichment, and export.

Multi-Agent Parallel Review Workflow

AI Review Operations • 2026

Problem: high-volume review and cleanup work was bottlenecking a single linear pipeline.

Solution: a parallel AI-assisted workflow splitting the work across specialized agents with structured outputs and review logic.

Impact: ~80% reduction in processing time, with the work still organized enough to audit and improve.

AI Catalog Classifier

Taxonomy Agent • 2026

Problem: manual categorization of new products was slow, inconsistent, and didn't scale across catalogs.

Solution: an AI-assisted classifier that scans titles and descriptions, then maps products to categories, attributes, and taxonomy logic.

Impact: ~80% reduction in manual categorization work, plus a reusable pattern for catalog cleanup that carries to other projects.

Project Banana: AI-First PIM Prototype

AI PIM Concept • Built in Under 24 Hours • 2026

Problem: a boutique brand with ~18,500 product variants was managing a complex catalog through disconnected spreadsheets and manual review.

Solution: an interactive AI-first PIM prototype showing how product data, images, categories, attributes, and enrichment workflows could become one structured operating system.

Impact: a broad operational problem converted into a concrete product concept, giving the brand a practical direction for catalog cleanup and workflow automation.

Project Banana: Product Data Engine

Standalone Phase 1 Module • AI-Assisted PIM • 2026

Problem: Project Banana is a long-term PIM vision, but phase one needed to stand on its own: extract and organize product data from a live catalog.

Solution: an AI-assisted Product Data Engine combining spreadsheet data with live website scrapes, then structuring SKUs, models, images, categories, descriptions, colors, and attributes into PIM-ready outputs.

Impact: the first working module of Project Banana, plus a standalone product-data tool for catalog extraction, enrichment, and PIM readiness.

Project Teapot: Marketplace Catalog Automation

AI-Assisted Marketplace Onboarding | 2026

Problem: a homeware brand was expanding from a single WooCommerce catalog onto 4 UK marketplaces running on Mirakl platform (B&Q, Debenhams, Tesco, The Range). Each retailer required different templates, taxonomy, image rules, and SEO standards.

Solution: an AI-assisted catalog automation workflow that mapped one WooCommerce catalog through Mirakl into 4 retailer-ready templates, each shaped differently. Handled product normalization, category mapping, compliance fields, image structuring, retailer-specific attributes, and SEO-optimized content.

Impact: 4 marketplace-ready templates delivered, 441 fields mapped, 2,414 SEO text items rewritten, and average SEO scores up from ~57 to ~90 out of 100.

Mini CRM Application

Lead Tracking Tool • 2026

Problem: needed a lightweight pipeline-tracking tool that wasn't a heavy Salesforce-style setup, just enough to keep status, notes, and next actions in one place.

Solution: a practical Mini CRM built with AI-assisted development, lead status tracking, notes, next actions, and a simple follow-up structure.

Impact: a focused internal tool that keeps pipeline data organized, and a working demonstration of turning a personal ops problem into a usable workflow application.

Proof-of-Work Portfolio Website

Personal Website + Deployment • 2026

Problem: a standard CV doesn't show the practical work behind AI automation, data operations, and internal-tool building.

Solution: this portfolio website itself, deployed as a live proof-of-work layer and built with AI-assisted development to structure the story, the pages, and a recruiter-friendly project format.

Impact: a working example of shipping functional websites end-to-end, translating complex operations work into clear product-style pages, and using web delivery as part of a personal-brand system.
