Want a website or app? Let's build it.

I design and ship fast, modern websites and apps — the kind you'd expect from a studio, from someone a few floors away. I'm taking on a few real neighbor projects while I grow my portfolio.

A few things I've built — all live, tap to open

Good fits

A website for a small business, service, or side project
A personal site, portfolio, menu, event page, or link page
A simple app, tracker, dashboard, or internal tool
A polished version of an idea you've had sitting around

How it works

Send me a few sentences about the idea.
We do a quick chat in the building or by phone.
I build a first version and you tell me what to change.

Pay what you want

I'm doing this mainly for portfolio work and real practice, so there's no fixed price. If the finished thing is useful to you, pay whatever feels fair. If money is the blocker, say that up front.

I'll only take a small number of projects so I can finish them properly.
