Certified Airtable consultant and developer

Your business has its own rules. I build the Airtable system that follows them.

I start with how your team works today, then design and build the base, interfaces and automations they use every day.

Talk to the developer who would build your Airtable system. No pitch, just a straight answer on how to build it and what it takes.

What I build

What an Airtable system needs to hold up in daily work.

A base alone is not a system. Not every business needs every part at once, so I build the parts that matter now and leave room for the next ones.

Selected projects

What each business needed, and the Airtable system I built for it.

Three ways to work with me. Start with a plan, or go straight to the build.

You want to know what the system should look like and what it will cost before you commit to a build.I map how your team works today, including the exceptions, and sketch the data model. You get a plan for the build with a fixed price.

You need a system your team will work in every day.I build the base, an interface for each role, forms and automations, connect the other tools you use and move your existing data over. At handover, your team gets documentation and training.

You want the system to keep running and to change with your business.I watch the automations and AI steps and fix what stops working. Each month, I make the small changes your team needs and we agree on what to improve next.

How a project runs

Six steps.
Your team is part of each one.

At every step you know what happens and what comes next.

  1. 01

    Intro call

    We talk about how your team works today and where it gets stuck. You get a first idea of what a system for your team could look like.

  2. 02

    Discovery

    I map how work moves through your business today, together with the people who do it. You get a written overview of what the system needs to do and in which order.

  3. 03

    Blueprint

    I turn what I learned into a plan for your system: data, workflows and the screens your team will use. You see and approve every part before I build anything.

  4. 04

    Build

    I build in short rounds and show you each finished part. Your team tries it with real data along the way, so the system fits how they actually work.

  5. 05

    Rollout

    Before launch, I train each role on its daily tasks and leave guides and documentation behind. Your team is ready on day one, and I stay close in the first weeks after launch.

  6. 06

    Ongoing support

    If you want, I look after the system after launch and adapt it when your team’s needs change. That way it keeps up with your business.

About me

I design your Airtable system, and I build it. Nothing gets lost between the two.

In three years at a financial publisher, I introduced Airtable and built it out until almost everything there ran through it: CRM, campaign planning, editorial approvals, project management and the dashboards for leadership. I also looked after the tool stack and the integrations outside core IT.

Before that, I trained and worked at a manufacturer, studied business administration and ran my own online business. Since 2024 I have designed and built Airtable systems for clients in the US and Europe, from e-⁠commerce and coaching to construction trades, field service, logistics and events. All of it taught me to understand how a company runs before I decide what a table should hold.

You work directly with me, from the first call to the handover.
