I can start immediately!

I’m Phil, a Senior Full-Stack Software Engineer with 15+ years of experience building high-impact web applications across frontend and backend. I’ve spent my career shipping fast, solving real problems, and turning ideas into real products.

I specialize in React, Next.js, TypeScript, Supabase, PostgreSQL, Node.js, and everything required to take a product from prototype → production → scale. I love working where engineering, UX, and product meet — designing features, running growth experiments, and delivering end-to-end systems that actually move the needle.

I see my self as a product engineer as I love to take a problem and go from 0 to production! I take ownership!

I’ve built and launched 10+ products, mostly solo — sharpening my skills across engineering, UX, distribution, and growth. I love creating tools that are useful, weird, or just fun to build. Some of my projects include:

• InterestingBars.com – Unique bars around the world • puzzlepostcards.shop – Send a puzzle postcard • ReclaimDesk.com – Modern lost & found management • UseStockStore.com – Simple inventory management app • DumpIt.app – AI-powered audio note-taking • ChronaGraph – Simple graph workflows for AI • TallyTabby.com – Minimal counting app • QRFeedback.app – Instant customer feedback via a QR code • ShiftingTicTacToe.com – Real-time twist on a classic game • DecodeBodyLanguage.com – AI nonverbal insights
