About

I take products from first commit to production — across web, desktop, and mobile.

Based in Tulsa, Oklahoma, I lead AI & Engineering at Idea Ranch, where I build the digital side of the agency's client work — Shopify apps, headless storefronts, analytics platforms, and interactive kiosks for national brands.

Outside client work, I ship my own products: a self-hosted QR platform, a font-syncing desktop app for design teams, and an AI-powered digital asset manager. I like owning the whole stack — architecture, interface, infrastructure — and sweating the details at every layer.
