What i build

From schema to dashboard, one system.

Most CRM problems aren't app problems — they're data model problems. I start at the Dataverse layer and work outward, so the app, the automation and the reporting all agree with each other.

01 / DATA

Dataverse modeling & security

Tables, relationships, business rules and role-based access designed so the data stays clean and the right people see the right records.

02 / APPS

Model-driven app builds

Custom forms, views, dashboards and command bars in Dynamics 365 — shaped around how the team actually works, not the default template.

03 / FLOW

Process automation

Power Automate flows for approvals, notifications, case routing and recurring reporting — replacing the spreadsheet-and-email versions of the same job.

04 / CYCLE

CRM lifecycle configuration

Lead → Opportunity → Case configured end to end, with the stages, ownership and SLAs that keep pipeline and service tracking honest.

05 / INSIGHT

Analytics integration

Power BI and Microsoft Fabric wired into operational data, with tuned models that keep executive dashboards fast and current.

06 / AI

Copilot Studio assistants

Conversational agents connected to real backend data, handling the support questions that used to sit in a queue.
