“We have our own app that everyone loves, because I can just do that now.”
Software as a Gift
I believe code is a love language. The most meaningful software I've built wasn't for clients or for clout — it was for my wife, my son, my friends.
An app that reminds my wife how loved she is. A Jeopardy practice app for a friend trying to get on the show. My late mother's cloned voice reading stories to my son. A pick'em app for a decade-old NFL tradition. Building software for the people you care about is the fastest way to learn, the most fulfilling way to ship, and proof that this technology can be genuinely good.

Former touring musician. Product designer for a decade. Started building with AI in late 2024 and haven't stopped shipping since. I make software for the people I care about and teach others how to do the same.
