Automated Reporting & Workflows

Automated Data Extraction & Weekly Report Generation

Instead of manually compiling spreadsheets every Monday morning, I build automated scripts and scheduled data pipelines that pull raw data directly from SQL databases or APIs, process the formatting, and generate scheduled PDF/Excel dashboards automatically.

Data Migration & Extraction

Safe Data Extraction From Legacy Databases

Legacy software often locks data behind proprietary databases or obscure formats. I analyze your legacy systems, write custom SQL queries or data extraction scripts, and cleanly extract your historical records so you can utilize them in modern tools.

100% Data preservation without data loss
Convert obscure schemas into standard SQL / CSV
Access years of valuable operational insights
Unlock Your Legacy Data
Custom System Integration

Seamless API & Database System Integration

When your CRM, ERP, inventory, or billing systems don't communicate, your team is forced to act as human middleware. I build robust custom integrations and REST APIs using C# / .NET that synchronize data automatically across systems in real-time.

Robust error-handling and audit logs
Works with both cloud APIs & on-premise databases
Integrate Your Software
Database Optimization & Analytics

Turn Years of Idle Data into Business Intelligence

Large databases can become slow, bloated, or difficult to query over time. I optimize SQL queries, index database tables, clean up redundant records, and build fast reporting views so your team can make data-driven decisions instantly.

Legacy Support & Recovery

Dependable Maintenance & Code Support

If your previous developer left without documentation, leaving custom software unmaintained, I step in to analyze your existing codebase, fix bugs, add new features, and provide ongoing reliable technical support.

Accounting & Excel Connectors

Automated Excel-to-Accounting Connectors

Re-keying invoice numbers, payment details, or transaction logs from Excel spreadsheets into accounting platforms leads to costly accounting errors and wasted hours. I build automated importers and connectors that move data directly into accounting tools cleanly.
