Work in action

A look at the products I’ve designed, built, and launched.

WellCart Vendor Eligibility

A rapid-prototype Next.js application built to automate vendor onboarding for Wellcart. Leveraging AI-assisted coding, I deployed this solution to replace manual workflows, allowing us to quickly populate our agentic system with local agriculture data for automated batch ordering through Instacart's API Developer Platform

What I bring to the table

Built through failing forward

Behind the computer

Behind the Computer

I help startups turn big ideas into products people actually use. Whether it’s an MVP that converts or a pitch deck that wins funding, I focus on speed and results over endless revisions. I’m a product validation nerd who loves pressure-testing ideas early and running lean. When I’m not building, you’ll find me stargazing, mountain biking, or hanging out with my amazing family

I help startups turn big ideas into products people actually use. Whether it’s an MVP that converts or a pitch deck that wins funding,

I focus on speed and results over endless revisions. I’m a product validation nerd who loves pressure-testing ideas early and running lean. When I’m not building, you’ll find me stargazing, mountain biking, or hunting for the perfect coffee.

Kind words from Clients

I came to Kevin with a big idea, and he gave me honest, straightforward feedback about what still needed validation. He quickly outlined how we could test the concept and run as lean as possible. From there, he designed the entire product while consistently involving me in the process and asking for my feedback.

Kevin did an awesome job with my app. It's an older app with a lot of complex pages and flows, and he was able to find the specific areas I needed updated. He told me everything he was going to do before he did it, and submitted work for review promptly. He's got a great product mindset as well, always thinking about how to improve the customer experience.

Kevin has a great product sense and brings a thoughtful perspective to every project he joins. On the Periodical project, he contributed meaningfully to both the "Add Sources" menu and the onboarding flow, approaching each with a clear understanding of user needs. He collaborates not as a contractor, but as a true member of the team—proactive, communicative, and always focused on delivering value.
