My primary responsibility is managing data in a CRM system, which includes information about companies, contacts, services, and sales. This involves supervising a team of data entry assistants and building no-code automation workflows. I map the CRM in Notion and Miro to track active processes.

PROJECTS

Web App - Army Builder

This project is inspired by one of my hobbies, tabletop wargaming, and is a web app used to query data on models. The project is written in Python using the web framework 'FastAPI' to handle queries, and it connects to a MongoDB NoSQL database (which was preferred to SQL as each model has numerous nested stat-blocks). It is hosted on the Railway infrastructure platform, and was completed as part of the #100DaysOfCode challenge.
