Capabilities
Where I bring the most leverage
Product
- Customer discovery calls and turning them into clear scopes
- Design systems that match the tone of the product
- Product strategy that respects pace and limited resources
Engineering
- TypeScript, Node for APIs and services
- Next.js, Astro, and React for fast interfaces

AI workflow
- OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, and local models when it fits
- Retrieval systems that can be explained to end users
- Evaluation rigs to keep models honest over time
Working together
What to expect if we team up
- I keep people close to the work. Weekly build notes, recordings, and handoffs are standard.
- Good documentation beats clever tooling. I write docs and record quick Looms before moving on.
- Support is part of the job. I answer user emails, debug, and keep the queue light.
