Selected work

Eight engagements, and what each one actually found.

Client names are withheld unless permission has been given. In two of these, the answer was that nothing needed to be built at all.

Selected work

Consumer lending · regulated financial services

Abandoned credit applications, recovered in minutes.

Applicants were dropping out partway through the credit application, and the business wanted them back.

What we looked at

The existing application flow end to end, including how operations staff were currently recovering abandoned applications by hand.

What the review found

Recovery was entirely manual and therefore slow, inconsistent, and capped by staff capacity. The constraint was the process, not the software.

What changed

A secure re-engagement path returning applicants directly to where they left off — plus the architectural foundation for modernizing the wider application experience.

Sr. Product Owner, contract · 2025–2026

CompletedNon-profit camp · facilities operations

A maintenance system built entirely from tools they already owned.

What we looked at

How camp maintenance issues — leaking faucets, damaged drywall, everything else — were actually being reported, prioritized, and closed out.

What the review found

They didn't need a facilities platform. They needed visibility. Every capability required already existed inside the Google tools they were paying for.

CompletedWinery · Willamette Valley

A winery that search engines could not find.

What we looked at

Why an established, operating business was effectively invisible to anyone searching for it online or navigating to it.

What the review found

Nothing was broken and nothing needed building. The business had simply never been registered with the services that feed search results and mapping.

Client engagement · advisory

Live · in active developmentOwn venture · small business software

A three-in-one platform, proven on our own organization first.

What we looked at

How a small organization actually takes a booking end to end — from a visitor landing on the site through to money in the bank.

What the review found

The friction wasn't in any one tool. It was in the seams between website, calendar, and payment processor — and in how long it took a non-technical owner to get all three working at all.

CompletedCommunity education · startup operations

An organization stood up from nothing, in working order.

What we looked at

How registration, intake, and payment would need to work in practice — before selecting a single tool to run them.

What the review found

Defining the intake flow first meant the payment and scheduling configuration followed the process, rather than the organization reshaping itself around whatever platform it happened to buy.

Co-founder, own venture · 2025–2026

CompletedLegal services · enterprise operations

Four applications became one, and onboarding dropped to days.

What we looked at

How new client cases actually got configured, across four flagship applications spanning three divisions.

What the review found

Most 'customization' wasn't development work at all — it was configuration being routed through the development queue by habit.

Product Delivery Manager · 2022–2023

CompletedEnterprise technology · 10,000+ staff

Ten thousand people moved platforms without stopping work.

What we looked at

How teams across the organization actually used the legacy system — agile and non-agile alike — before any migration plan was set.

What the review found

Adoption, not data transfer, was the real risk. Working patterns varied enough that a uniform cutover would have stalled delivery.

Product Manager, contract · 2023–2024

CompletedEducation · statewide assessment

One assessment platform serving three states at once.

What we looked at

Each state's testing workflow separately, rather than assuming a shared set of requirements across all three.

What the review found

A large common core existed underneath genuinely state-specific differences — so standardization and flexibility weren't actually in conflict.
