Projects
Things I build to see if they work. Most don't go anywhere, and that is the point: sometimes they fail completely, somethings they become a success. The rest are here because they were worth trying.
Cairn (working title) (2026)
A private, read-only page showing where I left off on every project I carry. It pulls from Notion, GitHub, Drive and production, and states for every value where it came from and how fresh it is. Built because re-entry, not task memory, is the expensive part of my work. How AI helps me leave work so I can pick it back up
ProPlanner (2024 to present)
An Etsy printables business built as a pipeline rather than a shop. Planning tools from my product-management work, adapted for everyday life. Each product is defined once in a catalogue file and generated as verified fillable PDFs in five sizes, nine palettes and three title styles, with listing images rendered from the actual customer files. A local studio uploads drafts to Etsy through its API and can replace assets on live listings, with a journal that prevents duplicates and recovers interrupted writes. Publishing is a human action and always will be. One catalogue file currently produces 100 products and about 25,000 PDF variants across 18 categories. The methodology is a versioned skill, so a new collection is a prompt, not a project. ProPlanner Shop on Etsy
