I write about what I learn and build tools that solve real problems.
Products & Services
Templates to ship faster, tools to work smarter, and services when you need a hand.
SaaS Starter Kit
Production-ready template with Next.js, FastAPI, AWS CDK. Auth, payments, email built-in.
Free Tools
JSON formatter, converters, and utilities I built for myself. No signup required.
Custom Work
Need something built? Consulting, code review, or custom development.
