BUILT BEYOND CODE
I've also co-founded and operated commerce brands. Products, positioning, storefronts, and the less glamorous work behind them.
I co-founded and operated both brands, growing them from launch to $3.76M in combined USD revenue over two years.
THE SHIP LOG
The archive matters too. Some ideas became businesses. Some became useful tools. Some had a good run and ended.
UNDER THE HOOD
I work across the whole stack: interface, APIs, data, deployment, and distribution. I like finding the problem, shaping the product, writing the code, and learning what happens after launch.
My GitHub is a mix of products, developer tools, and experiments. Here is some of the public code behind that work.
