About

I’m a freelance professional with decades of customer-facing experience, combining strong communication with a practical, solutions-first approach. I enjoy meeting people, building trust quickly, and confidently handling enquiries, resolving issues, and identifying opportunities to add value.

I’m also actively developing independent AI, content, and community projects—creating and publishing music, video, and podcast content across YouTube and social platforms, and using generative AI tools (with careful quality evaluation) to improve creative and research workflows. With a track record spanning sales, account-focused roles, and content production, I’m especially interested in remote customer support, customer success, account management, and sales opportunities.
