02 / What I do for clients

One person,idea to production.

Four ways to work with me. Each one ends with something you can use.

01
Next.js and Node apps
A working product in your users' hands, from the database to the app store.
- Full stack builds with Next.js, React, Node and TypeScript
- Mobile apps with React Native that share the same backend
- Payments, auth, deployment and monitoring included
Timeline
6 to 12 weeks to a first release
From
Project, or retainer
02
AI integration (OpenAI, Gemini, LangChain)
An AI feature that does a real job inside your product, not a demo.
- OpenAI or Gemini wired into your product, through LangChain or Genkit when it helps
- Structured answers your app can trust, checked before they reach users
- Queues for the slow jobs so the app stays fast
Timeline
3 to 8 weeks
From
Project, or technical partner
03
Product design
A product people understand on the first try, with a system your team can keep building on.
- UI and UX flows, tested on paper before they are built
- A design system in Figma that matches the code
- Brand identity when the product needs one
Timeline
2 to 6 weeks
From
Project
04
Docs and product thinking
A clear plan before anything gets built.

06 / About

Designer first.Engineer too.

I was a graphic designer before I was a developer. Layouts, type, brand identity. Then I wanted to build the things I was designing, so I learned to code.

Four years later I still do both, at full strength. At Visor Dynamics I work directly with the CTO on backend, AI and cloud systems. On my own time I take on products from the first sketch to production, and I write the specs, docs and research around them.

I led a small team on client apps, founded DevHack Club and ran 50+ events, and spoke at Hacktoberfest 2023.

I am building toward a mobile game studio. The experiments live in the Playground.
