Projects
See AllAI Personal Stylist for Men in NZ
A Flutter/Firebase app that enables users to order personally flattering clothes to their door in minutes. Available now on Play Store in open testing.
Peopler - Social Media App
A React Native/Firebase social media app that enables a real-time voice of the people of every country. Was available on Play Store and App Store, but removed for now (due to server costs) and the project is parked. I overbuilt the prototype and made mistakes UX-wise which I've learnt from.
Taskscape AI - Task Management App
A native iOS app built with SwiftUI and SwiftData, featuring task tracking, project tracking, badges for completing tasks, and AI 'stories'. Seems like a rite of passage for builders to start with a task management app. I did it too for some reason :).
