"I enter your world, find what's eating your time, and build systems that handle it — so you can lead without operational drag."
I'm Maryam Lawal — an AI Automation Specialist and Executive Assistant with 3+ years of experience supporting executives, founders, and fast-moving teams across the UK, US, Canada, and Australia.
I work at the intersection of two worlds most freelancers live in separately: the strategic, human-centred work of a senior EA, and the technical precision of an automation architect who builds AI-powered systems from scratch. Your business shouldn't stop running the moment you step away — I build the systems that make sure it doesn't.
Whether you need a dedicated Executive Assistant, intelligent automation systems, or both — I deliver the full stack of operational excellence.
Senior-level EA services: inbox management, calendar coordination, executive communications, research, report writing, and day-to-day operations — executed with precision and discretion.
Custom automation systems built in n8n, Make.com, and Zapier. From client onboarding to invoice recovery — I design, build, test, and document every workflow end-to-end.
I build AI agents that think, respond, and act — Lead Intelligence Systems, Executive Intelligence Agents, Voice Assistants, and Telegram-connected AI bots powered by Groq and Gemini.
Full operational infrastructure in Notion or ClickUp: Command Centers, Finance Logs, Task Pipelines, Vendor Audits, Internal Wikis, and team dashboards — built and ready to use.
GoHighLevel setup, pipeline stages, automated follow-up sequences, lead nurturing, and CRM operations — configured for service-based businesses that want leads to become clients automatically.
I connect your tools so data flows where it needs to go — without you touching it. API integrations, webhook routing, multi-platform triggers, and error-handling built in from day one.

I enter your world, map your current workflows, find the bottlenecks, and identify the highest-leverage opportunities for automation and executive support.
I design the system logic — triggers, branches, AI nodes, integrations — and present a clear build plan before a single step is automated.
I build in your environment, test every path including edge cases, and document everything so your team understands what runs and why.
Full walkthrough, documentation package, and post-launch support. You own everything — credentials, workflows, and complete setup guides.
Whether you need a dedicated Executive Assistant, intelligent automation systems, or someone who delivers both — I am available for project-based engagements and ongoing retainers. Find me on Upwork to get started.
