Apps
Apps I've built, and apps I'll build for you
Overview
I don't just train models. I ship working software
The consulting work taught me something: a model nobody can use isn't worth much. So I build the whole thing. The app around the model, the interface people actually open, and the parts that have to work on a Tuesday afternoon when no one's thinking about AI.
That means real applications: web apps, mobile apps, internal tools, and the AI-powered features inside them. Some I've built for myself and put online for anyone to use. Others I build for clients, and I work with people well beyond the New River Valley now, since software ships the same whether you're down the road or across the country.

Showcase
Apps I've shipped
A growing shelf of iOS apps, from calming toys to on-device AI. A couple were vibe-coded end to end, just to see how far agentic development with Claude can really go.
DefyusionOn-device Stable Diffusion
iOS · On-device AI
Defyusion
A Stable Diffusion studio that lives in your pocket.
Nineteen different image models, running entirely on the phone, on iPhone 15 Pro and newer. No cloud, no upload, no prompts quietly shipped off to someone's server. It's a working demonstration of just how much real generative AI now fits in your hand.
- 19 models to choose from
- Runs fully offline on iPhone 15 Pro and up
- Your prompts and images never leave the device
iOS · AI social network
Influencer
A whole social network where you're the only real person.
Everyone else is an AI. They follow you, like your posts, slide into your DMs, and react to whatever you put out, each with their own personality. It started as an experiment in pointing a fully simulated world at a single user, and that user is you.
- A real feed, profiles, and direct messages
- Every other account is its own AI persona
- An experiment in LLM-driven simulation

Build with me
Tell me about your app
Have an app in your head? I'll build it
From a one-line idea to something live that your customers or team actually use. You work directly with me the whole way, with no handoff to a junior team.
Web apps
Fast, modern web applications, whether customer-facing products or internal tools that replace a tangle of spreadsheets.
Mobile apps
Apps for phones and tablets, built to feel native and ship to the App Store and Google Play.
AI-powered features
The part most developers can't do well. Recommendations, chat, search, and prediction, wired in so they're genuinely useful, not a gimmick.
APIs & integrations
The plumbing that connects your app to the systems and data you already run on.
Who it's for
The kinds of apps people ask me for
Small businesses
A customer-facing app, a booking or ordering tool, or an internal dashboard that turns scattered data into something you can act on.
Researchers & labs
Data-collection apps, analysis dashboards, and tools that wrap a research model in something a team can actually run.
Founders with an idea
A prototype or MVP to put in front of real users, built quickly enough to learn from and solid enough to grow.
Teams drowning in manual work
An internal tool that automates the copy-paste-between-systems work nobody should be doing by hand.
Creators
Analytics apps and audience tools that turn engagement data into a plan instead of a hunch.
Higher ed & nonprofits
Purpose-built tools for advising, reporting, and the administrative work that eats everyone's week.
How it works
From idea to shipped
01
Talk it through
You tell me what the app should do and who it's for. I'll tell you straight whether it's worth building, and what the simplest version looks like.
02
Design the shape
We agree on the screens, the data, and how the pieces fit before writing the real code, while changes are still cheap.
03
Build it for real
I build it in working slices you can see and react to, so it's never a black box until launch day.
04
Ship it
Tested, deployed, and live, on the web or in the app stores, with the accounts and infrastructure set up in your name, not mine.
05
Keep it running
Software isn't done when it ships. I stick around to fix, tune, and add to it as you learn what your users actually want.

Let's build it
Got an app in mind?
Even a half-formed idea is enough to start. Tell me what it should do, and I'll tell you what it'd take to build, and whether it's worth it.
