About

An engineer who has already built the thing you are trying to build.

I am a FAANG engineer, and I have built hundreds of apps — anything from mobile to web to desktop, plus the integrations and infrastructure that hold them together.

That range is the whole point. When someone gets stuck, it is almost never because they are not clever enough. It is because the problem has quietly moved somewhere they cannot see — the app is fine but will not go online, the payment works but the email never arrives, everything runs perfectly except on other people's phones. Having built on every side of those joins means I can usually tell within minutes which one you have hit.

I help with the part that comes after it works, too — with one honest caveat. I am an engineer, not a marketer. But an app nobody can find is the same as an app that does not exist, and a lot of what causes that is technical: search engines being unable to read your pages, no tracking set up, a landing page that never says what the thing does. That part I can fix. Where something is genuinely a marketing question, I will give you my honest read and tell you when you would be better off asking a specialist.

I work the way I would want someone to work with me: in your actual project, on your actual problem, explaining what is happening in plain English as we go. No jargon unless you want it, no assumed knowledge, and no making you feel silly for asking something basic. You should finish a session with a thing that works and a clearer sense of why — not a recording you will never rewatch.

Range

What "anything" actually means

Six areas that cover nearly everything people bring to a session. If your problem sits between two of them, that is usually exactly where the trouble is hiding.

01

Phone apps

iPhone and Android — including the part nobody warns you about, which is actually getting approved and listed in the app stores.

02

Websites and web apps

Anything from a simple site people visit to something they log into, pay for, and use every day.

03

Desktop software

Proper programs that people download and run on Windows or Mac, and that update themselves afterwards.

04

Connecting things together

Payments, email, calendars, spreadsheets, and the other services you already use — talking to each other reliably.

05

Keeping it running

The invisible work that decides whether an app survives real users: staying online, staying fast, staying affordable, and not losing anyone data.

06

Building with AI tools

Getting genuine speed out of them without ending up with something nobody can fix — including you, three weeks from now.

Things people ask for

Features I can help you add

You do not need to know what any of these are called under the bonnet. If you can describe what you want it to do, that is enough to start.

Not sure if this is for you?

Start with the free session — thirty minutes, no charge, and the project is yours either way. If I am not the right person to help, I will say so early rather than sell you an hour.
