Hi, I'm Ken Besa.
AI Automation Specialist &
Full-Stack Web Developer.
I build intelligent workflows, scalable web applications, and AI-powered solutions that save time and drive growth. Based in Cagayan de Oro City, Philippines.
About Me
I'm currently pursuing my B.S. in Computer Science at the University of Science and Technology of Southern Philippines (2023–Present), focused on AI Automation and building systems that help businesses work more efficiently.
I started in the data layer of AI, working for over a year as a Data Annotator on 3D LiDAR datasets for autonomous driving. This gave me practical insight into how AI models learn from real-world data and how structured, accurate data supports intelligent systems.
Now, I focus on designing and building business automations—from lead management and CRM workflows to AI-powered processes and integrations. I use tools like n8n, GoHighLevel, Zapier, and Make, while leveraging my full-stack development skills when a solution requires custom applications, APIs, or integrations.

Job seekers spend hours formatting resumes to pass automated ATS filters. A Next.js web app integrating Gemini AI was developed to generate ATS-optimized bullet points, reducing formatting time from hours to minutes and boosting interview chances.
Hanap
Organizations struggle with insecure record-keeping and inefficient role access. A secure masterlist and role management system was created using React and Firebase, centralizing user data and ensuring strict, efficient access control.
PollView
Gathering synchronized audience feedback often suffers from high-latency delays. A real-time polling app built with Next.js and Supabase enables concurrent voting, delivering zero-latency engagement and instant data visualization.
Genesis
Scattered workflows and disorganized tasks reduce personal and team productivity. A comprehensive task management frontend built with React and TypeScript was developed to provide a unified interface that streamlines daily task tracking.

Automated Lead Capture & AI Classification
Sales teams waste hours on manual data entry, duplicate records, and delayed lead visibility. An end-to-end n8n automation was built to capture, deduplicate, and AI-classify leads in real time — automatically logging to Google Sheets, sending instant email replies, and notifying the team on Slack with priority scoring powered by Google Gemini.
Automated Leads Enrichment
Sales teams lose high-value prospects due to slow, manual lead processing. An end-to-end Zapier automation was built to capture, enrich, and prioritize leads, accelerating routing so sales can instantly engage high-value opportunities.
AI Voice Receptionist
Businesses miss critical calls during off-hours due to expensive 24/7 staffing requirements. A conversational AI voice agent built in n8n handles inbound and outbound calls, capturing 100% of phone leads round-the-clock while reducing operational costs.
Automated Financial Reporting
Manually transferring accounting data to task managers is slow and error-prone. A secure Make pipeline syncing Xero financial ledgers directly into Asana eliminates manual entry errors and speeds up financial reporting.
Asana CRM Automation
Fragmented pipelines cause dropped leads when data is manually copied. A Zapier workflow was created to sync incoming leads and generate Asana tasks, ensuring zero leads slip through the cracks due to administrative oversight.
AI Facebook Chatbot
Scaling social media support manually leads to delayed customer responses. An n8n chatbot was built to handle tier-1 support and capture Facebook leads, providing instant responses while freeing human agents for complex issues.
AI-Powered Gmail Attachment Organizer
Professionals waste hours manually downloading and filing email attachments. A Make automation powered by AI routes and organizes incoming files, reclaiming weekly administrative time and creating a searchable digital filing system.
AI Jobs Scraper
Job seekers spend hours manually filtering irrelevant job postings. An n8n scraper extracts and AI-scores listings, automating the job hunt by delivering curated and relevant opportunities.
Video-to-Social Content
Repurposing long-form videos for social media requires tedious manual editing. A Zapier workflow automatically slices and formats videos into shorts, scaling content creation with minimal manual intervention.
AI ASMR Video Generator
Producing daily niche video content requires massive repetitive effort. An autonomous n8n pipeline generates, renders, and cross-posts videos, operating a fully automated media channel that replaces manual production.
