Privacy-first • Accessible • Practical automation
Useful tech for small teams that need things to work, last, and make sense.
I build maintainable websites and workflow automations for small orgs, mutual aid projects, and community teams. The work is privacy-conscious, accessible, and documented so you are not stuck guessing later.
A clear build process
You do not need a polished technical brief. Bring the problem, the constraints, and what you have tried. I will help shape the path from there.
- We start with your goals, constraints, and the people who will use the thing.
- I propose a clear scope and timeline before the work starts.
- You get the finished work plus documentation you can return to.
Websites
Clean, responsive, accessible builds for org sites, campaigns, and resource hubs.
Automation
Forms, scheduling, reporting, dashboards, mail merges — the work that saves time and catches dropped follow-ups.
Digital safety
Threat-aware setup and guidance for teams supporting vulnerable people. Practical steps, not fear.
How it works
A good process should make the work easier to follow. This is the shape I use to keep projects from turning into a fog bank.
1) Intake + goals
A short call or form to understand your needs, audience, constraints, and urgency.
2) Scope + plan
You get a deliverables list, timeline, and a plain list of what I need from you.
3) Build + review
You see working progress before anything ships, with room to adjust the details.
4) Launch + handoff
Deployment, documentation, and support options so the handoff is not a cliff edge.
Sliding scale, because budgets are real
If you are doing community work, cost should not be the thing that keeps you from getting competent help. I use tiers so scope can match capacity.
Solidarity
lower-costFor individuals + small volunteer-led efforts.
Sustaining
standardFor orgs with steady funding or paid staff.
Supportive
pay-it-forwardFor teams who want to help subsidize others.
What gets better
The goal is not a shiny thing for its own sake. It is less confusion, safer defaults, and work your team can keep using.
Less operational drag
Repetitive tasks become workflows, automations, or handoff steps your team can repeat without starting over each time.
More trust at first glance
Websites get clearer navigation, accessible layouts, and privacy-conscious choices that feel steady to visitors.
Safer defaults
Accounts, permissions, and incident plans are shaped around real risk, small-team capacity, and next steps people will follow.

If you are not sure where to start, that is normal. Here are the questions that tend to come up first.
Do you really do sliding scale?
Yes. We will find a tier that fits and keep the scope realistic enough to finish well.
What do you build with?
Modern, maintainable tools. I will explain the tradeoffs without burying you in jargon.
How fast can we launch?
It depends on scope. Small sites can move quickly; bigger work gets a timeline before we begin.
Can you help with safety concerns?
Yes. I focus on practical, threat-aware setup and guidance, especially for vulnerable communities.
Ready when you are
If you have been putting this off because the tech side feels like too much, that is a reasonable place to start. We can turn it into something solid, safe, and usable.
