About

Hi, I’m Brad. I write it all down.

I’ve been building software for 15 years, including web and desktop apps, mobile apps, cloud systems on AWS, and tools that help teams work faster with AI. I live near Dacula, and I started this practice to bring that experience to the small businesses around me.

You work with me directly. There’s no account manager or offshore handoff, and the person you talk to on the first call is the person building your project. I keep projects small and scoped so they finish, and I write down what we agreed so nothing is a mystery.

How I work

What you can count on

  • You own everythingYour domain, content, hosting, and tool accounts stay in your name. If we stop working together, nothing is held hostage.
  • Plain languageProposals, updates, and handoff guides are written for business owners, not developers.
  • No inflated promisesI won’t guarantee rankings, leads, or savings. We agree on what to measure, record a starting point, and I report what changed.
  • Your data stays yoursNothing about your customers goes into an AI tool without your written OK and a plan for handling it.
  • A human in the loopAny AI output a customer will see is reviewed by a person first. That step isn’t optional.
  • Honest fitIf a redesign or an AI tool won’t fix your problem, I’ll say so, even if that means no project.

Toolbox

Chosen to fit the job and your budget

Most small-business sites don’t need anything exotic. I pick the simplest tools that will be easy for you to keep running, and I can go deeper when a project calls for it.

Websites
HTML & CSS, Astro, React, accessibility and performance basics, on-page SEO
Apps
TypeScript, React Native, Electron, .NET, PostgreSQL
Cloud
AWS (S3, CloudFront, Lambda, API Gateway, DynamoDB), AWS CDK, Terraform
AI
AI assistants and APIs, retrieval over your own documents, guardrails, rate limits, and cost controls
