The
Foundry

A B2B ordering portal for industrial panel shops. These shops order wire markers by sending whatever they happen to have: a photo of a handwritten list, a spreadsheet formatted however that customer formats spreadsheets, sometimes a legal pad. Someone on the distributor side retypes all of it, and one wrong character means a panel gets built with the wrong labels. The app takes the photo; the Claude API reads the handwriting and maps inconsistent spreadsheet columns into a clean order schema.

Quoting and file-routing middleware connecting a 3D enclosure configurator to an ERP system and to shop-floor CNC equipment, so a configured enclosure becomes a priced quote and a machine-ready file without anybody rekeying it.

A field maintenance app for plant equipment. Scans equipment nameplates with on-device OCR and pins each asset as a persistent spatial anchor using LiDAR, so a maintenance tech can walk a plant and find the same machine record in the same physical spot next time. Paired with Gantry, a per-plant management dashboard, and designed from day one as a multi-plant product rather than a single-site tool.

Construction field operations. Turns jobsite photos, voice transcripts, and site conditions into a structured daily report with hazard flags and confidence scoring, so a superintendent gets a usable document instead of a folder of images. Built for a construction contractor — The Foundry's first customer.

A customer-facing service-status platform for an independent auto repair specialist: a branded landing experience plus an iOS demo that keeps a customer informed about their vehicle without a phone call. Built as a demonstration of what a service business's digital front door can be.

A clinical-grade recovery-support platform for substance-use treatment: structured therapeutic modules, daily practice, family and sponsor connection, and clinician oversight — built so the software strengthens the work between a client and their counselor rather than trying to replace it. A self-directed build: I stepped away from a thirty-year industrial career to prove I could architect and ship clinical-grade software solo, roughly four months at twelve hours a day, with genuine review from licensed clinical and legal counsel throughout. It now runs in a gated pilot cohort on TestFlight, behind feature flags, with a governance process — clinical sign-off gates, frozen release waves, audit trails — that most funded startups don't have.

A voice-practice app for people in their seventies and eighties working to keep their speech strong. Senior-first design: no scores, no streaks, no numbers that make somebody feel like they're failing.

A gut-microbiome family-nutrition product: full product specification, design package, and an offline interactive prototype, prepared in collaboration with a physician. Design-and-prototype stage, deliberately — validate the clinical framing before writing shipping software.

A home monitoring platform that gives caregivers a picture of an aging parent's day — is everything okay? — without surveillance. Cameras are never required. AI summaries run locally, so the details of somebody's day don't leave the house. Being watched is not the same as being cared for.

An iOS companion app for a premium hi-fi listening room: multi-room casting fixed, a full interface redesign in the equipment's own visual language, deployed and in daily use.

A pantry and recipe app I built for my mother. Watch app included. The best requirements document is a person you love telling you what's annoying.

Marine navigation and onboard audio for iOS and CarPlay: charts, helm data, and the boat's soundtrack in one place, built to feel native at the helm rather than like a phone app propped on the console.

An iPad field monitor for mirrorless cameras over USB-C — focus peaking, exposure tools, and a director's view on a screen big enough to actually judge a shot, using the camera's clean UVC video feed.

An AI songwriting experience for couples. Each partner sits for a private interview — neither sees the other's answers — and the system writes and produces their song from what both actually said. The blindness rule is the product: the song lands because verse two knows something each partner only said out loud once.
