Thirty years of shipping software — Fortune 50 enterprise systems, financial trading platforms, and back in the '90s, a development team building CA-Realizer, a BASIC environment that went head-to-head with Visual Basic. I liked that product so much I eventually named my company after it.
Now I build solo, and I build in public.
🏢 Realiiz — my web design & digital marketing agency. Lead-generating websites for contractors, law firms, and local businesses — with AI search (GEO) optimization on every build: schema, llms.txt, crawler access. The work that decides whether ChatGPT recommends a business or skips it.
🛰️ SiteScan — founder-built SaaS for roofing and solar companies. A homeowner enters their address; satellite data measures the roof and returns a quote in ~30 seconds. The contractor wakes up to qualified leads. Designed, built, and operated by me.
🎥 The Solo Builder — documenting the real builds and real business decisions of a one-person software company. No hype, no "I made $50K in a weekend." An honest broker for solo builders.
Next.js · React · TypeScript · Tailwind · Supabase · Python/FastAPI · WordPress & the rest of the agency toolbox · Claude Code for the heavy lifting
Client work and commercial products live behind the curtain — the green squares are real, the code pays bills. Public extractions of the fun parts (scroll-driven canvas animations, AI-assisted build workflows) are coming as the YouTube channel grows.
