Whether you're launching a new venture, repositioning an existing brand, preparing for growth, or supporting an overstretched marketing team, I bring both strategic thinking and hands-on execution without requiring constant oversight. Areas of expertise: • Brand architecture and positioning • Creative direction and visual leadership • Brand identity systems and guidelines • Website and digital experience strategy • Marketing campaign creative development • Investor, sales, and executive communications • Team leadership and creative operations • Embedded creative partnership and ongoing support Clients typically bring me in when they need someone who can understand the business objective, align creative efforts to commercial goals, and deliver work that is both strategically sound and visually compelling. If you're looking for a creative partner who can think beyond design, lead initiatives independently, and contribute at a strategic level, let's talk.

I help founders and business owners turn vibe-coded prototypes into real, stable products people can actually use. If you’ve built something with Cursor, Lovable, Bolt, Replit, Base44, v0, Claude, ChatGPT, or another AI coding tool, I can help you clean it up, secure it, fix the broken pieces, and get it deployed properly. For mobile apps, I can help get your app production-ready and submitted to the App Store or Google Play. I’ve spent 15+ years building software for everyone from small businesses to venture-backed startups. I’ve led engineering at two YC-backed companies and have built dozens of applications for founders who later raised funding, became profitable, or used the product to run their business. My strength is working directly with founders. I’m not just here to write code from a ticket. I help you figure out what’s actually needed, what’s risky, what’s overbuilt, and what needs to happen to turn your prototype into something reliable. I can help with: • Stabilizing vibe-coded web and mobile apps • Fixing bugs, broken flows, and messy codebases • Securing Supabase, Firebase, APIs, auth, and payments • Deploying apps to Vercel, Render, Heroku, Supabase, etc. • Preparing and submitting mobile apps to the App Store / Google Play • Cleaning up AI-generated code • Adding missing production features • Integrating Stripe, auth, email, storage, analytics, and admin tools • Improving performance and reliability • Building MVPs from scratch when needed • Coaching founders who want to keep vibe coding but need technical guidance Tools I regularly work with professionally include JavaScript, TypeScript, Next.js, React, React Native, Expo, Python, Flask, PostgreSQL, Supabase, Firebase, MongoDB, Ruby on Rails, Heroku, Render, Vercel, n8n, OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, LangChain, and Go. If you have a prototype that “kind of works” but isn’t ready for real users, that’s exactly where I’m useful.
