Systems that shipped, and stayed up.

A working record label needs a creative pipeline that never blocks artists - studios, render boxes, and terabytes of session data, all kept safe and in sync without a corporate IT department.

On-prem infrastructure built around a fleet of Mac Studios for production and rendering, wired into a self-hosted backup and ops layer. The centerpiece is "Strainge-Backup" - a 128TB UNAS Pro running a 3-2-1 strategy with scheduled snapshots and offsite mirroring, so no session is ever a single drive away from gone. I also run the label's blog and official merch store on the same stack.

Studios that stay fast, sessions that survive hardware failures, and an IT operation a creative team never has to think about.

Multiple artists and brands each needed a storefront and a shared home, without standing up a new platform every time.

A multi-tenant network platform with a shared merch backend, powering the main hub and a merch storefront on owned infrastructure - one codebase, many artist stores.

A single platform that spins up artist stores fast and keeps them all running from one operator desk.

A soundstage is only as reliable as the network, storage, and power behind it - and creative shoots can't pause for a flaky switch.

End-to-end stage infrastructure: structured networking and ingress, redundant local storage for capture, mesh access for remote review, and monitoring so problems surface before a take is lost.

A soundstage where capture, storage, and review just work - built and operated by one systems lead.

Families navigating court-mandated support need a calm, private, trustworthy way to find and book sensitive services - not a confusing intake form.

A full professional-services platform for Safe Passage KC covering supervised parenting time, supervised exchanges, therapeutic and monitored parenting time, co-parenting coaching, individual and reintegration therapy, and supervised video calls - with accounts, scheduling, and service intake built around licensed professionals.

Court-mandated and family support services delivered through one clear, dignified booking experience.

A family notary business needed a simple, trustworthy web presence and a way to handle bookings without fuss.

A clean site and booking flow for the family notary business, hosted on the fleet alongside everything else - low-maintenance, easy to update, and reliable.

A professional web presence for the family business that runs itself between updates.

Vendor AI meant rented tokens, data leaving the building, and no memory between sessions.

The public S.A.M brain surface - a local inference stack on owned GPUs with Ollama runtimes, an MCP tool layer, and an agent doctrine that carries memory, identity, and guardrails across long-running sessions.

Agents that act on intent, run on my own metal, and hand off cleanly to the next session. No cloud bill, no lock-in.

Collectors needed a real market and clean card data, not another spreadsheet.

A full collection market and card-data platform - catalog, pricing, listings, and a market engine - shipped end to end on the home fleet.

A live collection market with real card data, running in production on owned hardware.

League-wide baseball data is messy, rate-limited, and scattered across endpoints.

A DB-backed ingestion and scoreboard engine that syncs games, teams, and players into canonical, citation-safe pages.

A live, same-origin baseball engine that powers league-wide scoreboards and featured games.

Casual browser games and retro titles rarely keep your progress when you leave the tab.

A progressive web app emulator and browser-games hub with cloud saves, accounts, and shared state - installable, running on the same fleet and auth layer as everything else.

Browser games that remember you, with saves that follow you across devices.

Voxel building experiences usually demand a download and a beefy machine.

Voxel worlds that run directly in the browser, streamed and rendered client-side with no install.

Editable voxel worlds anyone can open in a tab, no download required.

A niche product line needed a storefront and guest-facing kits that felt finished, fast.

A focused storefront for threshold kits and guest signs, built and deployed on the same fleet as everything else.

A shipped, on-brand commerce site delivered on a tight schedule by one person.

Generic weather widgets are noisy and rarely tuned to the exact place you care about.

A live local conditions and forecast read for Lee's Summit, cached server-side and surfaced as a clean same-origin signal.

Current conditions and a usable forecast for Lee's Summit, refreshed when it matters.

Writing and a merch store usually mean two more SaaS bills and two more places for data to live.

A self-hosted blog and a merch storefront, both running on the fleet behind the same auth and edge layer as everything else - notes ship from the operator desk, orders route through owned infrastructure.

A blog and a store I fully own, with no platform tax and one place to keep them running.
