Independence, Missouri

I build software for towns, families, and the people who show up when things go wrong.

I'm a firefighter who ships production software — native apps, civic systems, encrypted infrastructure, and developer tooling. Most of it exists because my family, my department, or my town needed it to.

About

A firefighter who ships production software.

I'm an active firefighter with the Sugar Creek Fire Department and a father. That shows up in what I build: family safety, emergency tooling, privacy-first architecture, and software that has to hold up when it matters.

It started in October 2025 at the kitchen table with one question — what can we actually afford? That became an App Store budgeting app, then a render studio with its own Metal engine, open-source tooling on PyPI, a civic reporting platform, and a neighborhood marketplace for my own town. KCTV5 and Fox4 ran segments on GoKC ahead of the 2026 World Cup.

I work nights and after shifts. Every product here was architected and built by me, solo and end to end — the schema, the backend, the interface, the store listing, and the support email.
