BUILT BEYOND CODE

Pixels to
physical products

I've also co-founded and operated commerce brands. Products, positioning, storefronts, and the less glamorous work behind them.

$3.76M

I co-founded and operated both brands, growing them from launch to $3.76M in combined USD revenue over two years.

THE SHIP LOG

Built it, shipped it
Learned from it

The archive matters too. Some ideas became businesses. Some became useful tools. Some had a good run and ended.

UNDER THE HOOD

Builder brain
Operator hands

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.
