"Build things that solve real problems. Ship fast, iterate faster." — I build tools to scratch my own itch, then put them in front of real users. Currently obsessed with how AI changes the economics of solo software development.
- Started with Python, ended up full-stack TypeScript and never looked back
- Every project I build gets self-hosted on my own VPS — I like knowing exactly what's running where
- InboxAI was born because school emails were genuinely ruining my mornings
- I think the best developer tools are the ones developers build for themselves
