I design, build, ship, and run a portfolio of small, focused software products, most of them for owner-operated businesses: buying signals, document parsing, construction takeoffs, listing videos, plus a few apps and browser extensions built for fun. Everything under Projects is real.

=======================

Hi. This is my corner of the internet, dressed up as a
desktop from 1995. Everything on it is real and links out
to things that are live.

WHAT I DO
---------
I build and run small software products. Most of them
solve one specific, expensive problem for an
owner-operated business:

  * finding the accounts worth calling today (Intakra)
  * turning documents into structured data (Dokyumi,
    W-2 Extractor, Pay Stub Parser)
  * pricing a construction bid for a specific metro (Portravo)

A few are just for fun: RepDeck runs a workout clock,
Plastfri flags plastic while you shop.

HOW I WORK
----------
Small scope, shipped fast, then run for real. I do the
research, the design, the code, the deploy, and the
support. The company is Soxoa.
