Looking for a local business system worth improving.

I help growing businesses improve the forms, spreadsheets, workflows, websites, apps, and AI tools their employees rely on every day.

An example of what I can do for you

Custom App

From a garage full of collectibles to a manageable inventory.

I built a custom app to help me research collectible items, keep track of what I have, and prepare them for sale. It brings photos, item notes, suggested prices, and selling options into one place. I can review the details and prepare an eBay listing without starting from a blank page each time.

Before: a garage filled with storage bins and collectible items waiting to be organized
The inventory. Over 100 neatly stacked totes along with plenty more to work through.
All of my Inventory. I can quickly search by description or inventory #. I also have personalized marketing and research tools available across the top.
Free-Tier Gemini-powered research. By just taking photos and adding optional notes, Gemini gathers relevant information for me at no charge.
eBay or antique shop. The app suggests where the item is best suited to sell, gives an estimate, inventory number and offers item-specific tools for marketing and research.
On-device Siri. Taking further advantage of free work, on-device AI builds out the eBay description text for me to review. Then I just choose item categories and submit.

I can build a custom tool for you too.

For small businesses here in Northwest Florida, I build internal websites and tailored tools that make work easier, whether that means tracking inventory, keeping job notes together, or cutting down on repeated typing.
