The short version.
I'm Erik. Dominican, based in North Carolina. Started my career behind a camera doing editorial photography, then discovered I loved building the systems behind the scenes even more.
For the past 10+ years, I've been writing Python, architecting Django applications, and automating everything I can with N8N. I've built 150+ systems for companies ranging from luxury furniture dealers to fintech startups.
I also teach. My Udemy courses have helped 1,600+ developers learn N8N automation and AI chatbot development. I believe in teaching from real projects, not slides.
Currently building TalosFlow (AI sales agent for WhatsApp) and running Taveras Solutions.
