Gerald B.

AI & Process Automation Specialist

Hello! 👋 I'm a seasoned entrepreneur with extensive experience in business management, web technology, automation, and data analysis. I founded and scaled two startups—one successfully ($500K in monthly sales, 10 collaborators before selling) and one I shut down last summer, which led me to UpWork, where I now bring my expertise to new projects. I'm straightforward and efficient. Many who have worked with me say I’m one of the fastest and most precise people they’ve collaborated with. I love learning, thrive on tackling challenging projects, and take full initiative and ownership in everything I do. With the rise of AI, I’ve shifted my focus to the tech side of web work. Working alongside LLMs is a game-changer—you can build, iterate, and ship faster than ever, punching far above your weight. AI isn’t just a tool; it’s a shift as profound as the rise of the internet. Intelligence is no longer scarce, opening endless opportunities to optimize, automate, and rethink how we work. Together, let’s build something that keeps you ahead of the curve. My Favorite Things to Work On: 🔹 Tech & Development: - Python App Development (Docker, FastAPI, GCP, AWS) - AI Agents & LLM Workflow Automation - Airtable App Development - Document Processing & OCR (AWS Textract, Tesseract) - Graph Databases (Neo4j, Cypher, NetworkX) - Task Automation (Zapier, Make.com, N8N) - FNMA & MISMO Data Processing (Mortgage Automation) - Data Pipeline Design & ETL Workflows - API Design & System Integration 🔹 Business & Strategy: - Troubleshooting Organizational Issues - Optimizing Productivity & Workflow Systems (Notion, Asana, Airtable) - Building Businesses from Scratch - Strategic Planning & Technical Project Management 🚀 I only work with people who make decisions and move fast. I expect quick feedback, rapid iterations, and a bias toward action. If a project drags due to indecision or slow responses, I'll call it out—and if nothing changes, I’ll move on.
