I build the thing you've been waiting  six months to ship.

I’m a solo developer working with founders, small businesses, and non-technical operators who’d rather have a real working app than another deck.

Currently shipping

BaitIQ v2 — iOS, App Store
Unlearn Your Credit Habits — launch

Principles

I'm not here to be polite.

  1. 01 Shipping beats perfecting. Always.
  2. 02 Six months without a launch means you're losing.
  3. 03 I write code. I don't write decks.
  4. 04 Working software is the only persuasion that matters.
  5. 05 If we can't ship in twelve weeks, we shouldn't start.

I’ve shipped iOS apps to the App Store, websites for family businesses, desktop tools, and game prototypes. Different stacks, same operating mode: scope tight, ship fast, then iterate against real users.

What I build

Four lanes.
No drift.

  1. 01

    Marketing sites

    Astro · Next.js · Tailwind · Cloudflare

    Fast-loading, conversion-focused landing pages and brochure sites. Custom-designed, never templated. From scoping to live in 2–4 weeks.

  2. 02

    Web applications

    Next.js · React · TypeScript · Supabase · Stripe

    Full-stack products with real users. Auth, payments, data, AI integrations. From rough sketch to v1 in 6–12 weeks.

  3. 03

    Mobile apps

    Expo · React Native · EAS · OpenAI

    iOS and Android apps. Shipping to the App Store and Play Store. Camera, location, payments, push, AI features — the works.

  4. 04

    Hard integrations

    Stripe · Plaid · Supabase · Webhooks

    Stripe payments. Plaid for credit/banking. OpenAI/Anthropic for AI features. Auth, webhooks, the unsexy plumbing that has to actually work.

Stack

The tools, not the religion.

I pick the stack that fits the problem. Sometimes that’s a static Astro site. Sometimes it’s a Next + Supabase + Stripe app. Sometimes it’s a React Native build shipping to the App Store. These are the tools I reach for most.

Process

From call to live in weeks.

01 Day 0

Intro call

30 minutes. We talk about what you're trying to ship, by when, and whether I'm the right person. No deck, no slides.

02 Day 1

Brief + estimate

Within 24 hours of the call, you get a written scope, timeline, and fixed price. If we're aligned, we start.

03 Weeks 1–N

Build

Design and dev in parallel. Daily Loom updates if you want them, weekly demos if you don't. You see real working software inside a week.

04 Final + 30

Ship + 30 days of support

Launch, hand-off, and 30 days of free bug fixes after. After that I'm available for retainer or one-off updates.

Contact

You bring the problem. I bring the build.

Tell me what you’re building, when it needs to launch, and the rough budget. I answer within one business day. If we’re not a fit I’ll tell you and point you to someone who is.
