The personal layer behind 10XP.dev.

I run 10XP.dev, where I help business owners turn messy workflows, customer intake, and operational bottlenecks into clearer software systems.

On this domain, I keep the personal layer: what I am building, what I am learning, and the projects that shaped how I think about useful technology.

Where I spend my attention.

01

Business software

Custom web apps and internal tools that make day-to-day work easier to track, hand off, and improve.

02

Customer-facing websites

Fast, clear sites for local and service businesses where trust, contact paths, and conversion matter.

03

AI automation

Practical workflows that reduce repetitive admin while keeping owners in control of important decisions.
