Six years.
Three ventures.
Five languages.

Bespoke wooden sheds, garden structures and buildings, sold across Czechia and Slovakia. Long-cycle consultative selling — site visits, custom quotes, 3D-configurator demos, multi-week negotiations with families and small businesses making a five-figure decision.

To compress quote cycles, I built the 3D configurator itself, a Czech-language voice agent that handles inbound qualification, and a parametric Blender pipeline that turns each quote into a render in minutes — not days. Founder mentality on cost, throughput and audit trails.

A cultural-arts institute in the Gemer region of Slovakia. Sponsorship sales to regional brands, ticketed events, artisan partner agreements, institutional grants. Selling intangible value — experience, audience, cultural cachet — to brands, municipalities and EU funds.

2025 footprint: 156 events delivered, 20,000+ participants. Multi-stakeholder, multi-language, multi-budget. The discipline is single source-of-truth briefs feeding budgets, marketing, day-of run sheets and post-event reports.

Direct-to-consumer artisan products plus wholesale into European marketplaces — built end-to-end on the Upgates & BaseLinker stack. Catalogue, pricing, marketplace integrations, paid + organic acquisition, fulfilment.

One placement worth flagging: a gallery cooperation with the National Czech & Slovak Museum in Cedar Rapids, Iowa — a US footprint built through a single direct partnership conversation.
