About
Clarity in complex portfolios.
For over 11 years I've helped energy-sector organizations see clearly what's happening across their portfolios — costs, schedules, resources — and decide before problems get expensive. I lived it from the inside: reports, templates, forms. Today I combine that experience with automation and artificial intelligence so those processes run on their own.

Services
Work on your business, not in it.
You know you need it. You just don't know where to start. Let's start there.
Your team spends hours on reports, forms, and emails — operating inside the business. Let's automate that work and activate the data you've already archived, so you can spend your time deciding where to go.
Efficiency is the floor, not the ceiling: with the same data I automate, I find where your next growth is.
Custom automation
I turn manual reports, forms, and follow-ups into processes that run on their own.
Dead data → prediction
I take the history your company already has and turn it into models that predict dates, deadlines, and likelihood of meeting them.
AI agents
Service, Q&A, and predictive assistants integrated with WhatsApp or Telegram that respond and guide 24/7.
For SMBs that couldn't afford automation before — and for large enterprises that need to wake up dormant databases.
I cover the full cycle: from diagnosis to automation, until your operation runs on its own.

Post-quantum cybersecurity
What they steal today, they'll decrypt tomorrow.
It's not alarmism: Google is migrating all of its cryptography to post-quantum by 2029, because of “store-now-decrypt-later” attacks. We secure your data before quantum computing breaks today's encryption.
20M → 100,000
The qubits needed to break today's encryption were estimated at 20 million in 2019. Today, at 100,000. The window isn't shrinking — it's collapsing.
- At the source — where it's created
- In transit — while it moves
- At rest — where it's stored
9 out of 10 companies still have no plan for this.
Diagnosis, strategy, and technical implementation — a single coordinated process, end to end.

Proof, not promises.
Every capability I list has a real demonstration and a verifiable credential. No empty promises.
2026
I turn project schedules into prediction and decisions — with custom-built software.
I design and build the whole product: I read MS Project schedules, compute real progress, predict delays with machine learning, and let an assistant answer schedule questions in plain language.
