Why these projects exist

Every one of these started as a problem I couldn't stop noticing. Not a feature request. A friction I had to live with.

Centralized tool for corporate travel requests and itinerary visibility. Built because the current process is chaos.

From event to report in under 3 minutes. Inspired by how broken most expense tools actually feel.

Taking a real intranet nobody uses and rebuilding it so people actually want to open it.

Front-end concept for a boutique fitness studio — testing a premium-but-approachable visual language for a crowded niche.

Front-end concept for a luxury fitness equipment brand — exploring how restraint and material detail can sell performance without shouting.

My own studio site for apps, automations, and SharePoint systems — built to walk the same clarity-first talk I bring to client work.

Most of these started as somebody else's problem. If you've got one that won't go away, I'd like to hear about it.
