Los Angeles · Technical co-founder for equity

You have the company. I build the product.

I partner with founders as their technical co-founder, building apps and marketplaces end to end — in exchange for equity rather than an invoice. I have already taken three products from an empty repository to production and through App Store review. If you have the market and the customers and are missing the person who can actually build it, that is the conversation I want.

The Care Royal Live · Web, iOS, Android CFO · 2021–now
The Care Royal running in production
thecareroyal.com — agency platform

A multi-tenant platform that home care agencies run their day on: shift scheduling, caregiver and client records, applicant tracking, messaging and documents. Four roles — owner, manager, caregiver and family — each seeing a different product.

The part I care most about is invisible: per-tenant isolation enforced at the database layer, so no agency can reach another's records even if the application code is wrong. Security that depends on the UI behaving is not security.

Caregivers clock in and out with GPS verification and the timesheet builds itself, then the platform computes gross, tax and net against current federal and California tables. When two payroll partners declined our applications, I replaced the integration with an in-house calculation engine — which removed the dependency and kept the platform out of the money-transmission path entirely.

Tegula Stone Live · Web, iOS, Android Product & Engineering · 2025–now
Tegula Stone running in production
tegulastone.com — contractor marketplace

A two-sided marketplace connecting homeowners with stone and tile contractors — quoting, bookings, messaging, reviews, and subscription billing driven by Stripe webhooks.

I built a production error-monitoring pipeline that captures browser and backend faults, groups them by normalized signature, and alerts once per issue rather than once per occurrence. Then I did the less obvious half: filtered out the third-party scripts we do not control. Most of the alerts were a bug in someone else's analytics beacon. An alert stream nobody reads is worse than none.

The finding I am proudest of was uncomfortable. Reconciling edge traffic counts against analytics showed our numbers overstated real demand by roughly thirty times — the rest was bots. A strategy had already been built on that number. I would rather kill my own conclusion than defend it.

Unified Savers Live · Web COO · 2024–now
Unified Savers running in production
unifiedsavers.com — consumer product

A consumer savings product built on a serverless edge stack with static generation, holding a 90+ Lighthouse performance score across the site. I own the content architecture, the technical SEO and the automated publishing pipeline behind it.

How I work

Shipping is the job

Code that is not in production has not been tested by anything that matters. I take work all the way through review, signing, release and the monitoring that comes after.

Measure before concluding

Numbers mislead more often than they lie. I reconcile a metric against a second source before building a plan on it — and I say so out loud when the second source disagrees.

Leadership, not just delivery

Before engineering I ran a nineteen-person call centre operation to first place across the entire organization. Coordinating people is a separate skill from building systems, and both are needed.

Let's talk about building your product for equity.

Tell me what you are building. If it is a fit, I will call you and we can talk about scope and what an equity split looks like.
