A place for the work behind the work

The problem

A site to host all of my work in a design that reflects me and where I’m from.

How I built it

I wanted to be mindful of how many credits I used, so I created a project structure that Claude and Codex could both access—simultaneously or one after the other. I gave the agents a shared handoff protocol so either could pick up where the other left off without repeating work.

I specified my goals and designed the high-level site structure. From there, the agents helped plan and execute the full build: securing the domain, setting up the site on Cloudflare, establishing the site architecture, and building the working pages.

I was intentional about the design system. I brainstormed directions with Claude, supplied a mood board, and iterated until I landed on a visual language that felt like me and reflected where I’m from.

For the content, I described each project story by voice and used those conversations to generate a first text layout. I then did the final editing and voice pass for every project. The final content is completely written by me.

What do we watch tonight?

A two-person shortcut through streaming indecision

The problem

Every Friday night we watch a movie, but we spend too much of the little time we have researching what to watch. We lose time meant for being present and enjoying our Friday evening together.

What I’m building

The tool takes our individual tastes, current mood, available time, and streaming services. Instead of presenting us with a world of options, it narrows the field to six, creates a shared shortlist we can both vote on, and helps us land on one decision.

Principles

  • Decide quicklyMove from six tailored choices to one shared decision in minutes.
  • Protect our core interestsMake the decision faster without compromising what matters to either of us.
  • Keep it lightMake it easy to navigate, focused rather than overwhelming, and fun to use.
  • Require no maintenanceAvoid profiles that need upkeep and do not recreate features our streaming services already handle.

Family HQ

A shared command center for everyday family life

The problem

Family logistics live in too many places: calendars, texts, mental notes, school updates, and half-finished lists. The cost is not just missed tasks—it is the constant effort of remembering what everyone else needs.

What I’m building

Family HQ will bring events, birthdays, school assignments, chores, and the tasks attached to each event into one shared view. Information will be organized by what needs attention today, what is time-sensitive next, and what everyone only needs to know for later.

Principles

  • Reduce the burden of invisible workSurface the planning, remembering, and follow-through that usually lives in one person’s head.
  • Bring transparency and orderMake our household chore list clear, shared, and owned.
