Managing properties often means juggling spreadsheets, vendors, and endless updates.
I built a Zapier automation that takes care of the repetitive work—checking for duplicates, creating records, and sending Slack updates automatically.
Property owners save time, reduce errors, and get smoother communication without the manual hassle.
It’s all about making property management simpler and more efficient.
This workflow was a fun challenge to build, lots of branching logic, but worth it to see property owners save time and avoid repetitive tasks. Excited to keep refining it

AI is a great copilot, but it’s a terrible captain.
With AI coding assistants, it’s easy to fall into the trap of letting the LLM drive the entire development workflow. You prompt, copy, paste, and pray.
But our value as software engineers has never been about how fast we type syntax. It’s about system design, critical thinking, and code ownership.
Our role is evolving from builders to technical pilots. If you completely delegate the workflow, you lose control of the project.
Here is a quick framework to keep ownership of your features while leveraging AI:
🛠️ The 4-Step Workflow Guide
Design First, Prompt Second: Define your architecture, data flow, and edge cases before touching an LLM. Use AI to implement, not to invent.
Deconstruct: Break features into micro-steps. Guide the AI through isolated, high-context tasks (schema ➡️ logic ➡️ error handling).
Radical Skepticism: Treat AI code like a PR from an intern who is incredibly fast but occasionally hallucinates. Test and review every single line.
Own the "Why": If a bug hits production, "the AI wrote it" is not an option. You are responsible for the code you ship.
📌 To Developers: The future belongs to those who use AI to accelerate execution, but keep their eyes on system architecture and product sense.
📌 To Tech Recruiters: Stop looking for syntax experts. Look for developers with strong debugging frameworks, system-level thinking, and true project ownership.
Facebook Lead Automation & Backup System
I designed and implemented a Facebook Lead backup automation using GoHighLevel and Zapier to streamline lead management and prevent data loss. The workflow automatically captures Facebook lead form submissions, creates or updates opportunities in the CRM, and ensures efficient lead tracking with an integrated delay step for further automation. This system enhances lead nurturing, optimizes response time, and ensures businesses never lose valuable prospects.
End-to-End Website Data Extraction Automation with n8n
This project is an automated website data extraction workflow built with n8n. The system is designed to fetch a website homepage, extract internal page URLs, loop through selected pages, collect page content, clean and structure the extracted data, and generate a final organized output automatically.
The workflow includes multiple automation steps such as homepage fetching, URL extraction, page-by-page looping, delay handling, individual page requests, content cleaning, data aggregation, JavaScript-based processing, and document updating. This makes the system useful for website audits, content collection, lead research, SEO analysis, documentation generation, and business data extraction tasks.
My work focused on building the full n8n workflow structure, connecting each automation node, adding controlled delays between page requests, processing extracted content with JavaScript, merging results into a clean format, and sending the final output into a document. The result is a practical end-to-end automation system that reduces manual website research and turns web content into organized, reusable data.
Skills & Tools:
n8n, Workflow Automation, Web Scraping, Website Data Extraction, JavaScript, API Requests, HTTP Request Automation, Data Cleaning, Data Aggregation, Document Automation, No-Code Automation, Low-Code Development, Business Process Automation, SEO Data Collection, Content Extraction.
