Building the operating model of a new company
I opened the office with the owner and set up how it works. I deputise for the owner on operational, budget and hiring decisions as part of the leadership team.
As first employee of a growing real estate agency, I set up its operating model and built what it runs on: a CRM, an assistant on the website, a document compiler, the website itself and its sales materials. Then I trained the team until they used them every day.

words of CRM requirements, processes and data model, with 18 logged decisions
forms and documents redesigned, 10+ SOPs written
Google customer interactions, 20 five-star reviews

I opened the office with the owner and set up how it works. I deputise for the owner on operational, budget and hiring decisions as part of the leadership team.
I wrote the requirements, the processes and the data model, then led the build in Agile sprints: roles and permissions, a lead lifecycle with a mandatory next action, an audit trail and automated tests. The team has the app installed, with two-factor sign-in; it runs on synthetic data until real client data goes in.
Demo recording with synthetic data only.
Inside the CRM →A live assistant on the company website: 50–200 conversations a month, new leads, GDPR-compliant consent, and a handoff to a person on prices, availability and appointments.
An offline HTML document compiler used every day; by my measure it cut file preparation time by over 50%. I redesigned 20+ forms and documents with it.
For Esadental, a dental supplies company, I designed the launch of an orthodontics line on a B2B e-commerce site with 100+ products: separate journeys for clinics and laboratories, reordering by product code, kits, reserved price lists and a guided quote.
The strategy and storytelling of a 76-page sales brochure for 29 units, the project landing page, an immersive website, a leasing landing page, and 100+ listings that I photographed and post-produced.
OLIVIA guides visitors on the agency website. She breathes, follows your cursor and changes her greeting by section. The rule I gave her is simple: on prices, availability and appointments she never decides. She hands over to a person.
Designed and built by me. Here she runs on an open-source AI model and answers only from verified facts; if the model is unavailable she switches to her original rules. The agency demo has the office contacts removed.
Before a line of code, I wrote down how an enquiry really travels through the agency, who owns each step and which decisions were still open. That became a six-document project bible and a register of 18 decisions. The build followed it.
More than 12,000 words, written as the source of truth for the build.
Share of valid leads with an owner and a next action within the agreed time.
Supporting metrics cover time to pick-up, incomplete or unowned leads, conversion by source, no-shows and duplicates. A rule I wrote into the plan: metrics must never reward aggressive contact, fake closes or actions without consent.
Built with AI coding tools. My part: requirements, process design, decisions, test scenarios and rollout. Status: the team has the app installed and signs in with credentials and two-factor authentication. It still runs on synthetic data: real client data goes in only after go-live.

The landing page of a new development: the project story, the residences, an interactive map of the area, cookie consent, and the first version of OLIVIA with a form to leave your details.

A night-and-stone website for the agency: selected homes, new builds shown as renders and labelled as such, a before-and-after slider for buildings to restore, and OLIVIA on every page.


Landing page and brochure for an office in a landmark gallery, with prospect research in Italy and abroad. The campaign led to direct lease negotiations with a technology company.


Naming, identity and website for a handmade jewellery brand: collections, the artisan's story, short films and a journal.
I wrote the strategy, copy and storytelling of this brochure for a new development of 29 units in energy class A4: the location, its heritage, each floor and every unit. Images are architectural renders.
A launch concept for a new orthodontics line on a B2B e-commerce site with 100+ products: the landing page, the customer segmentation, the offer and a four-step operating plan. Scroll the page on the left.

Concept, landing page and mockups. Shown as designed; not a live shop.
As first employee I built the tools, the materials and the routines of a new agency. Here is all of it in one place.
Mandates, viewing reports, purchase and lease proposals, privacy notices, receipts: the agency's whole paperwork, redesigned as one consistent family. Click any page to enlarge.
I photograph and post-produce the agency's listings myself: interiors, details, staircases and drone views. A selection from four properties.
I built the brand of an artisan who makes jewellery by hand: the name, the visual identity, the website, the journal, short films and the catalogue. 40 collections photographed so far. The pieces are real: where a setting was generated with AI, the jewel stayed faithful to the original, as the comparisons below show.

Real photoCatalogueEvery catalogue image starts from a photo of the real piece. Pick a piece and drag the line.
