Behind the pixels.

The story, the sparks, and the toolkit behind this site.

The Story Behind

This site is my workshop in public. The brief I gave myself was narrow on purpose: a monochrome palette, square corners, a serif for headlines and a mono for the details, and a content model where every page is typed data instead of hand-written markup.

Constraints chosen up front are constraints you don't relitigate at 2am. They also keep the work honest - there's nowhere to hide behind a gradient or a stock animation.

It's built with Next.js 16 and React 19, styled with Tailwind v4, and shipped with an AI-native workflow. I plan, build, and review with Claude Code as a pair - fast, but without cutting corners on quality.

The goal was simple: a digital home that feels considered, loads fast, works for everyone, and sells outcomes over a résumé.
