About

I’m a Financial Controller with nearly two decades of experience in financial reporting, bookkeeping, and business analysis. After years of seeing where small businesses get stuck, I’m bringing enterprise-level expertise to build practical, accessible apps for service businesses. My goal is to create streamlined tools that help contractors and business owners manage their cash flow, get paid faster, and stay on top of their numbers. I recently launched PayXT to make field invoicing frictionless, and I'm currently building out a suite of budgeting and cash forecasting tools. Always happy to connect and talk about fintech, bootstrapping, and building for the trades!

PayXT - Turn a text message into a paid invoice in seconds.

PayXT is the fastest way for mobile professionals to get paid. Ditch the clunky card readers. In just 3 seconds, generate a secure Stripe or PayPal checkout link and text it directly to your client. Stop bleeding margins: our "Fee Gross-Up" toggle legally passes the 2.9% processing fee to the customer, so you keep 100% of your money. Features automated tax calculations and a 1-tap Nudge button to chase unpaid bills. Built for contractors who want to get paid before they leave the driveway.
