Bring me the problem. I’ll build the fix.

I’m a problem solver who builds. Leads slipping through the cracks, a website that undersells you, hours lost to the same manual task: I find what’s really causing it, then build the fix as a custom website, an automated pipeline or a careful AI helper.

Problems I solve

Start with what’s slowing you down.

“Our website doesn’t look like the business we’ve become.”

The fix: a custom website

A WordPress site built around your brand and quick on phones. Your own theme, not a page builder, so it stays fast and easy to change.

“Inquiries come in, and some never get a reply.”

The fix: an automated pipeline

Every inquiry lands in one place, follow-ups send themselves, and you get a task the moment a person needs to step in. Built in GoHighLevel.

Solved for Saiko Prime Holdings →

“We lose hours every week to the same manual task.”

The fix: a careful AI helper

A small AI tool that sorts, drafts or reports so your people don’t have to. Each one has hard limits on what it is allowed to touch.

Kosha dashboard: a clock, a Japanese evening greeting and the kanji of the day
App + AI · In daily use

Kosha: a dashboard that talks

Schedule, mail, bills and builds spread across a dozen apps. Now they share one screen, and she reads them out in Japanese with English subtitles.

Automation · Runs nightly

Life Inbox: an inbox that sorts itself

Bills and replies buried in a busy inbox. Now an AI sweep labels mail and puts bills on a calendar, and it is never allowed to delete, send or reply.

A scrapbook home for a college theatre org

An org’s history with no home of its own. Now a warm, scrapbook-style site with a page for every batch since 2002. The founder has seen it and liked it.

A study app that forgives breaks

Flashcard apps punish you for taking a break. This one doesn’t, and it saves new words straight from the browser in one click.

How working with me goes

You always know what’s happening.

  1. 01

    Talk and plan

    You tell me what you need. I send my questions first, then a quote for the whole job.

  2. 02

    Build in rounds

    Small rounds, so you see real progress early and can steer.

  3. 03

    See every change

    Each round ends with a short PDF of before and after screenshots. No logging in to check.

  4. 04

    Launch and care

    Launch with backups in place, then updates whenever you need them.

What problem should we solve first?

Tell me what’s slowing your business down. I’ll reply within 24 hours with questions and a first idea for the fix.
