I build the system that turns missed calls and dead website traffic into booked jobs: an AI agent that answers, qualifies and books, wired into the site, the calendar and the CRM. Most businesses lose revenue in the same two places. Nobody answers after hours, and the website doesn't convert the people who do land on it. I fix both as one system instead of two projects. WHAT I BUILD • AI voice agents and AI receptionists that answer, qualify, escalate real emergencies, and book directly into your calendar. Twilio, OpenAI API, calendar and CRM integration. • AI chatbots and RAG assistants trained on your own documentation, so they cite your policies instead of inventing them. • Workflow automation in n8n, Make and Zapier: lead routing, qualification scoring, CRM sync, with alerting so nothing fails silently. • Missed-call text-back and automated review generation. • Websites and web apps in Next.js, React, TypeScript, Tailwind and WordPress, built for conversion and local search rather than decoration. • Full-stack SaaS. I designed, built and shipped MealPreppi, a multi-tenant AI meal-planning app on Supabase with role-based permissions enforced in Postgres RLS, realtime sync across households, and an AI planner that reads leftovers, cook rotation and each member's macro targets. MEASURED, NOT CLAIMED • 100% Job Success Score. • A 28-page WordPress lead-generation site scoring 100/100/100 on Lighthouse across five page types. LCP 0.5s, CLS 0, TBT 0ms. • A cinematic scroll site where I found a repaint bottleneck and took worst-frame render time from 1055ms to 39ms. • A canvas scrub engine tuned from 70ms to 29ms p95, verified on both GPU and software rendering harnesses. • Six-plus years front-end. Day job: front-end developer for the Alameda County District Attorney's Office, where I have led multiple full rebuilds of public platforms serving 30,000+ monthly users, improved performance by up to 30%, refactored legacy systems of 20,000+ lines, and driven three county websites from below WCAG A to full WCAG 2.1 AA under DOJ-mandated standards. Government work is unforgiving about performance, accessibility and not breaking URLs. That turns out to be exactly what local search rewards too. WHO I WORK WITH Service businesses and trades: HVAC, plumbing, electrical, tree service, locksmiths, med spas. Plus agencies and founders who need an automation or integration built properly rather than bolted on. WHAT THINGS COST AI automations and integrations: $300 to $1,500 AI agents, voice receptionists and booking systems: $1,500 to $5,000 Websites and web applications: $2,000 to $8,500 Ongoing tuning and management: from $299/month Fixed price wherever the scope allows it, so you are not carrying the risk of how long it takes. HOW I WORK I build before I pitch. Several pieces in my portfolio are complete, deployed sites I built to win the job rather than after winning it. I would rather show you working software than a list of adjectives, and it means you can judge the quality yourself instead of taking my word for it. I tell you what I found even when you didn't ask. Every project closes with numbers: what it produced, what it recovered, and what is still exposed. If you already know what is broken, send me the specifics and I will tell you exactly what I would build and what it would cost. B.S.
