01
Find the real problem first
Troubleshooting taught me to work out what's actually wrong before I change anything. I reproduce the problem, narrow down where it comes from, and then fix the cause.

I've been solving
problems with code
since I was six.
I'm a full-stack developer in Kingston, Jamaica. Problem solving is what I love most about coding, and years of troubleshooting taught me how to find what's really wrong. I build web apps with Next.js, PostgreSQL, Zod and Three.js.

How I work
How I go about solving problems.
02
Build it to find out
When I have an idea, I build a small version and see if it works. Most of the playground and the lab started that way. It's the quickest way I know to find out if an idea is any good.
03
Let the tools catch mistakes
I use Zod to check everything that comes into an app, including forms, API responses and AI output. Drizzle and TypeScript keep my code in step with the PostgreSQL database, so when I change a table I can see everything that needs updating.
04
Build for the people using it
Many of my apps are made for Jamaica, where a lot of people are on prepaid data with patchy signal. So the vendor marketplace keeps working offline and syncs later, and the bus tracker is light on data.
05
Explain it in plain language
I explain what I'm building and why in words anyone can follow. I write things down as I go, and I raise problems early so nobody gets a surprise later.
06
Look after it once it's live
I deploy most of my projects myself on Linux servers, with nginx, PM2, backups and deploy scripts. When something goes wrong in production, I'm the one who fixes it.
Selected work
Four projects I'm proud of.
Each of these had a problem that took real work to solve. Those problems are the reason I enjoyed building them.

Polymarket trading bots
Polyedge and Polymtrade are bots that trade on Polymarket, a crypto prediction market. Polyedge is a market maker that I control from its own dashboard, and every bot on it starts in paper mode so I can test without real money. Polymtrade runs several strategies side by side so I can compare them. Both shut themselves down on a losing streak. I built them with Claude.

Apps that keep working offline
A marketplace for Jamaican street vendors and a live tracker for JUTC buses, both built for phones that lose signal. The marketplace saves every action on the phone and syncs when the connection comes back. The bus tracker queues GPS pings on the driver's phone, and works out each route from where the buses actually drive.

Squaremax, a website builder
A business signs up, builds its site from a component picker and gets a real site on its own domain. Every section keeps its own content, so you can change how a section looks without losing what you typed. It has 28 kinds of component, plus add-ons for booking, notifications and inventory.

Story-to-video system
Pick a theme and it generates the characters, locations and scenes for a story. It keeps the characters consistent by giving the AI the right details each time, sometimes as images. ElevenLabs does the voices, and a script drives Adobe After Effects to put the dialogue, artwork and audio together into a finished video.

YouTube automation platform
An app that scraped trending topics, wrote video scripts with GPT and produced videos that were ready to publish. I used Zod to check the AI's output before the app did anything with it.

AI story game
A story game where you're the main character and an AI narrator runs the world. The world is saved in a database, so characters remember what happened and the story carries on from where you left it. Every change the AI wants to make is checked with Zod before it's saved.

Real-time platform that replaced paper
While working as a NOC engineer, I built a WebSocket platform that connected internal departments directly to clients. It replaced a paper-based tracking system. I also wrote VBA scripts that pulled report information out of email, which saved the team from compiling it by hand.

Websites for real businesses
I've built and deployed sites for a courier company, property services, a care provider and a dental practice. I handle the backend, the logins and the frontend, and I host them on Linux servers I set up myself.

Playground
And some things I built just for fun.
A chess engine, a flock of birds in Three.js, worlds generated from a seed, music toys made from oscillators, and a little character who can run along the headings of every page on this site. No client asked for any of these. I had an idea and wanted to see if I could build it.
