About

I build operating systems for fast-moving teams. My work sits between founder priorities, operations, AI workflow automation, and cross-functional execution. I help turn messy, reactive work into clear systems: SOPs, dashboards, scorecards, team rhythms, automations, and decision workflows that people can actually use. Over 11+ years, I have built and scaled operations across digital agencies, O2O retail/service, marketplace launch, telecom channel programs, and multi-entity business environments across Brunei, Malaysia, the Philippines, and the US. I use tools like n8n, Make, Zapier, Claude, OpenAI/Codex, LLM APIs, ClickUp, Notion, Google Workspace, webhooks, and AI-native development environments to reduce manual work, clarify ownership, and improve execution speed. Strongest fit: - Chief of Staff / founder-side operations - AI transformation and automation consulting - Operations automation and workflow design - Remote team operating systems - Ecommerce, marketplace, O2O, and service operations - SOPs, dashboards, scorecards, and cross-functional execution
