Optimistic Innovation

I share the awesome things I build.

No ads. No tracking. Just honest software built by a human to solve real-world problems.

The "Student Loanware" Model

I build high-quality, privacy-focused apps for free. If they help you, you can chip in.

100% of donations go to paying off my student loans. Once the debt hits $0, the donate button disappears forever.

Who Am I?

I wear a few different hats. By trade, I am a Banker, driving innovation and digital strategy in community banking through ventures like Big Beaver Bank. By education, I am a Theologian. By duty, I am a Father and Husband.

I hold a B.S. in Computer Information Systems from Aquinas College and an M.A. in Theological Studies from Asbury Theological Seminary.

This website is my digital playground—a place where my love for technology meets my desire to build helpful, ethical tools for the community.

Core Values

  • Privacy is a Right

    My apps do not track you. Period.

  • Accessible to All

    Cost should never be a barrier to useful tools.

  • Optimism

    Technology should make life better, not more stressful.
