Why one person

You’re hiring me, not a bench. That’s the point.

You get the person you met

I scope it, I build it, I hand it over. No sales call followed by a junior team.

A real business behind it

LiveLoveApp, LLC has been profitable since its first year. US company, professional liability insurance, your MSA or mine.

Nothing gets stuck with me

The code lives in your repo and runs in your cloud, with runbooks, evals and a handoff your team owns.

A few clients at a time

I take on what I can give real attention to, and I say so when I’m full.

Who I’ve worked with

Fortune 500s, enterprises, and startups backed by investors like a16z.

Teaching

I bring teams along. A lot of my work has been teaching engineers to do it themselves.
  • GoogleWorkshops and talks for the client services teams. I worked closely with the Angular team.
  • M&T BankEnd-to-end testing workshops with open source tools, to tighten their SDLC.
  • FedExNgRx standards and training, then delivery alongside the team to hit their deadlines.
  • AG GridWorkshops on AG Grid for their customers, and a partner since.
  • Conferencesng-conf, NG Rome, React Summit and React Advanced.
  • WritingThe O’Reilly report Why Angular for Enterprise Development, and articles on agents and agentic UI.
