Build with clarity. Ship with confidence.

I help teams with web and product engineering, embedded software, and mechanical design. Philadelphia-based, with Delaware roots; working with clients everywhere.

About Me

With almost a decade of experience in engineering design, I work the whole stack: CAD and mechanical design, embedded software, and modern web platforms. I focus on clear communication, practical tradeoffs, and shipping work you can maintain.

CAD & mechanical design

Solid modeling, assemblies, and design-for-manufacturing for prototypes and small runs.

Software engineering

Building modern, responsive websites using the latest technologies.

Embedded & firmware

Bare metal software solutions, custom SBC stacks, and more. Extensive experience soldering multi-board assemblies and custom modifications including piggybacks.

My Process

A streamlined approach to bringing your vision to life

1

Initial consultation

I align with you on goals, constraints, timeline, and what β€œdone” looks like for your project.

2

Plan & tradeoffs

I propose a lean path: milestones, risks, and what to validate first β€” before writing too much code or CAD.

3

Build & iterate

Short delivery cycles with demos and feedback. You stay in the loop; I adjust as we learn.

4

Test & harden

Exercise the real failure modes: performance, edge cases, and integration points that matter.

5

Ship & handoff

Deploy, document, and transfer ownership β€” or keep a light retainer if you want ongoing help.

Engagement model

Flexible consulting β€” scoped to your risk and timeline

Monthly
Yearly (Save 20%)

Consulting

Illustrative retainer-style numbers; real quotes depend on scope

$300 /mo

  • Discovery + written scope (what we’re building and why)
  • Iterative delivery with demos
  • Clear handoff and documentation
  • Async updates + scheduled checkpoints
  • Optional ongoing support after launch
  • Honest β€œno” when something isn’t a fit

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about our services and process

Typical work spans web apps and internal tools (TypeScript, APIs, Astro or similar), firmware and bring-up on embedded targets, and CAD or mechanical design when the problem crosses hardware and software. If it is not a fit, I will say so early.
We start with a short discovery call and a written scope: milestones, risks, and what success looks like. Then we iterate in small loops with demos, feedback, and adjustments so surprises stay small and decisions stay informed.
Most work is remote and async-friendly, with scheduled checkpoints. On-site or lab time can make sense for hardware bring-up, fixtures, or tight integration weeks. We can plan that when it matters.
By default you own deliverables paid for under the agreement. Details belong in the contract (NDA, license, and handoff). I am happy to align with your legal or procurement process.
You work with me. For larger efforts I may bring in trusted collaborators with your approval, but I stay accountable for integration and quality.
Use the contact form on this site or reach out on LinkedIn. A short description of the problem, timeline, and constraints is enough to start a conversation.
