About

About

For over fifteen years I've worked where business meets technology. I turn complex processes into smart systems that genuinely help people, and I prefer to build them myself.

The story

As a Zendesk consultant and developer I help organisations, from startup to scale‑up, take their customer experience to the next level: full migrations, smart automations, AI agents and custom apps.

I'm also an entrepreneur at heart. I founded Bidia (sold in 2019) and I'm now building Woonconnector, Taccelerate and Balie.online. Consultant, builder and founder: so I don't just advise, I deliver.

Zendesk environments

What I do

From customer service to complete products

I combine strategy, technology and execution. No thick reports, just systems that work from day one.

Zendesk implementation & migration

From an empty account to a fully configured support platform, or a seamless move from Hubspot or another system. Including workflows, triggers, macros and reporting.

AI agents & Zendesk AI

Smart AI agents that resolve customer questions on their own and take load off your team. I set up Zendesk AI and make sure agents truly understand what your customers need.

Integrations & custom apps

I connect Zendesk to the rest of your stack (CRM, planning, e-commerce) and build custom Zendesk apps where out-of-the-box isn't enough.

Automation & processes

Mapping processes and making them smarter. Less manual work, fewer mistakes and more time for what really matters.
