What I built
Architected a modular creator operations system with Airtable as the system of record and 10+ linked bases covering applications, onboarding, payouts, and performance analytics. Defined event-driven workflows across the ambassador lifecycle: application intake → CRM sync → contract onboarding → FirstPromoter referral activation → Discord role provisioning → performance tracking → payout execution via Radom API. Implemented Make.com for core lifecycle orchestration and Zapier for event routing, notifications, and integrations such as Klaviyo email flows and Discord automation. Integrated YouTube and Instagram APIs to sync creator performance metrics into Airtable dashboards for real-time visibility across 65 ambassadors and 101M+ views.
Unified fragmented creator operations into a scalable, event-driven automation system for ambassador lifecycle management and payouts.
