Web Developer | SEO, AEO & GEO | AI Automation | Claude Code | n8n

I build websites, SEO, and AI search visibility (AEO/GEO) that bring in clients, then automate the follow-up. → Counseling practice: 58 → 250+ monthly visits after a site rebuild + local SEO → Same practice: recommended 1st by ChatGPT and Perplexity in its town → New Google Business Profile: 0 → 59 interactions in month one → $2.23M agency: 24 → 65 booked calls/mo → Official n8n creator ⸻ FULL BREAKDOWN: I build websites that rank on Google, show up in AI answers (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Google AI Mode), and route every inquiry to the right inbox or CRM. Behind that I build the automations, CRMs, and AI workflows that follow up on each lead. I work in Next.js, WordPress, Shopify, Framer, and GoDaddy, with n8n, Make, GoHighLevel, and Claude Code. WEBSITE, SEO & AI SEARCH WINS: → Rebuilt the website and set up local SEO for a private counseling practice. Monthly visits went from 58 to 250+, and the practice picked up 3 new clients in the first 28 days. Created its first Google Business Profile, which logged 59 interactions in its first month. It moved from 5th to 3rd in Google Maps for its main local search. → Optimized the same practice for AI search (AEO/GEO): LocalBusiness schema, consistent business details across directories, and content written to answer patient questions. In repeated tests, ChatGPT and Perplexity named it first for "therapist in [town]," and it placed top 2 across ChatGPT, Claude, and Google AI Mode. → Rebuilt the Shopify store for a Berkeley coffee roaster: new theme, 17 search-targeted pages indexed, subscriptions, tasting bookings, wholesale inquiry forms, and GA4 lead tracking. Daily orders roughly doubled in the weeks after launch. → Rebuilt the WordPress site for a window and door installer: service-area and builder pages, rewritten titles and meta descriptions, spam-filtered quote forms routed to the owner, and Search Console indexing. → Built a Next.js website and booking system for an Australian service business: online bookings with Stripe deposits, a staff admin, and automated email notifications. → Finished and launched a Framer site: SEO cleanup, social share previews, 7 HubSpot forms, legal pages, and mobile and tablet fixes. → Served as interim CEO of a 20-year-old martial arts academy losing $6K+/mo. Rebuilt the website and onboarding, automated communications, and brought it to profitability in 7 weeks. The academy reported 22 new clients after the update. AUTOMATION & AI WINS: → Built 6+ AI automations for a $2.23M marketing agency within 30 days, including ad content generation, sales call analysis, and social media insights. Over the seven-month engagement their booked calls climbed from 24/month to 65/month, and they closed 14 new clients worth $266K in lifetime value. → Rebuilt backend operations for an 8-figure restaurant group with 40+ locations. Replaced roughly 20 hours a month of manual truck routing and carrier cost analysis with a system that returns it instantly, then built the Power BI dashboard their standardized inventory templates feed. → Ran a 4-hour AI workshop for an 8-figure cybersecurity company, taking non-technical staff from zero to building automations that cut a 40-minute process to under 5 minutes. → Built a GoHighLevel chatbot in n8n that qualifies leads, books appointments, and sends custom quotes without human intervention. → Deployed SEO blog automation in Make for a 7-figure advertising company, improving their organic search performance through systematic content generation. → Built a client onboarding system in Lovable that cut delivery time from 2 weeks to 24 hours, with Stripe integration and database management. → Built a full-stack AI fitness coaching app (Next.js, Supabase, Gemini API), production-deployed on Vercel. → Built a Google Maps lead scraper in n8n for a dental services provider, using Perplexity and OpenAI to enrich and qualify each record.
