Ferry

Lead engineer

Dispatch app for last-mile couriers working across patchy networks. Every action queues locally and reconciles when signal returns, so a rider never waits on a spinner to mark a drop.

Riders completed drops offline for the first time; support tickets about “stuck” deliveries fell by half.

Kola

Mobile engineer

Savings and rotating-credit app for informal groups. Built the ledger UI and the reconciliation flow that lets a group settle a cycle in one pass instead of arguing over screenshots.

Cycle settlement went from a day of back-and-forth to a single pass.

Northbound

Full-stack

Booking platform for a regional coach operator. Rewrote the seat-selection path so the map stays responsive while fares load.

Time-to-interactive on mid-range Android fell from roughly nine seconds to under two.

Tempo

Solo

A small tool for tracking practice sessions. Local-first, no account, syncs through a single encrypted blob. Built it for myself and kept it deliberately unfinished.

Relay

Contract

Internal design system and component library shared across one company’s web dashboard and two React Native apps. One set of tokens, three renderers.

Three products stopped drifting apart; one token change now ships everywhere.

Full-stack Engineer Placeholder Labs — Node services and internal web tooling. 2019 — 2021

You bring the idea. I build the app, put it in the stores, and keep it running.

I care about how an app feels. Does it open fast? Does it work without signal? Does it respond the moment you tap? People notice these things, even if they never say so.

I usually work alone. I plan the project, build it, ship it, and stay around to fix what breaks. One person, start to finish.
