Software shipped at the pace of thought.

I'm an independent engineer building custom web and mobile software for teams that need it done right, and done quickly. One operator, direct channel, short feedback loops.

01What I build

Practical software, end‑to‑end.

  1. 01

    Web applications

    ReactNextNodePostgres

    Custom dashboards, internal tools, marketing sites and product surfaces. Built for performance, designed with taste, deployed with boring reliability.

  2. 02

    Mobile apps

    React NativeExpoiOSAndroid

    Cross-platform iOS and Android apps that share one codebase. Push, offline, payments, deep linking — the whole stack, not just a hello world.

  3. 03

    System integrations

    APIsWebhooksETLAutomations

    Tying tools together so your team stops doing manual work. Stripe ↔ CRM, forms ↔ sheets, legacy DB ↔ modern API — pragmatic plumbing that just runs.

  4. 04

    Advisory & audits

    ArchitectureCode reviewPerf

    Short engagements to unstick a decision or a shipment. Architecture reviews, hiring help, or a second pair of eyes on a codebase that's gotten hard to move.

02How I work

A sole engineer. No layers in between.

i

Direct channel

You talk to the person writing the code. Decisions don't pass through account managers, and nothing gets lost in translation.

ii

Ship in days, not quarters

Most engagements produce something working in week one. We iterate on a real thing, not a Figma of a real thing.

iii

Clean, maintainable

Clear code, sensible types, useful tests. If someone takes this over in a year, they'll thank you, not curse you.

iv

Fixed scope, honest price

Most work is quoted flat for a defined scope. No mystery hours, no scope creep by stealth — just a number, a date, and a demo.

Have something to ship?

Let's get it on the calendar.

A 25-minute call to see if the fit is right. Bring the rough idea — I'll bring questions, and a realistic path from here to shipped.
