Helping organizations and business owners streamline workflows and manage data for smarter growth with airtable.
welcome to positive workspace
Every business is running with some level of disorganization — that’s what happens when you grow.
As a verified Airtable Consultant since October 2020, I help business owners design and up-level their systems by optimizing workflow through automations, custom views, and organized data.
If documents and data are unorganized, access to information overwhelming, systems inconsistent and frustrations high, it’s difficult to make informed decisions.
Easily find what you need in one location, creating structure for your business and your life.

Workflow automations and optimization
Most of my clients don’t have an IT department and are looking for a solution that supports their work, provides key metrics, and is easily maintained by their team.
When Airtable launched their powerful Automations in 2020, I made the decision to focus 100% on Airtable’s functionality and stopped working with third-party apps.
ABOUT ME
Hello and thank you for being here. I’m Diane.
I’ve lived in Davidson, NC since 1995. If you’re a basketball fan you’re probably familiar with Davidson College and Steph Curry. If not, Davidson is a small college town 20 miles north of Charlotte. Before launching my Airtable consulting business in January of 2019, I had a 16-year career (career one) as a software developer writing custom code for a consulting firm in Charlotte.
Career two was a different kind of work: I took some time to raise my three children who are now grown and living in Charlotte, Los Angeles, and New York City.
In the fall of 2015 I was hired by a start-up to build out the operations side of the business. That’s when I was first introduced to Airtable, which was the catalyst for launching my third career: Positive Workspace. Five years later, PW has become so much more than helping organizations design and build custom databases.
I love what I do and have on-going relationships with many of my first clients. I merge my knowledge of Airtable with the clients’ vision for optimizing the organization of their data, systems, and processes. It makes for a collaborative effort, with both sides generating ideas until clarity sharpens.
I enjoy working with nonprofits and small- to medium-sized businesses. The teams I work with range in size from one to 20+ Airtable users. Working with clients on an ongoing basis, whether a monthly retainer or as-needed, provides the most valuable long-term database/s development. Airtable is adding new functionality and features monthly and knowing which new tools might be beneficial and which don’t apply is helpful for teams to stay current on best practices.
I would love to answer any questions you have on a complimentary 30-minute consultation call and will gladly recommend better suited consultants if your project is not the best fit for my skill set. My priority is to help you find the best expert for your project.
It’s all about the people, relationships and working smarter
