A practical background.
A practical approach.

I have two engineering degrees, one of them in computers and networks, and more than five years in marketing and sales at a large international company.

After moving to Canada in early 2023, I worked in landscaping, solar panel installation and alongside tradespeople. I saw good local businesses struggle to find clients because they weren’t using online tools. When one of my managers asked me to help with his social media, I found my way back to marketing, websites and the technical side.

That is how IWA started. Today I build and look after websites, along with content, contact forms, domains, business email and social media. Since 2023 I have been learning and using AI in real work, and I bring it in where it saves you time.

You work directly with me. Tell me what is happening and what you want to change; you don’t need a technical brief. We agree on the work and price before starting, and I explain any separate costs for hosting, subscriptions or other services. I use AI in research, troubleshooting and production, and review the results myself.
