About

I’m an independent developer working on macOS and Web projects. I build tools to solve problems I encounter myself, and hopefully make them useful for others as well. I believe good products come from patience, not shortcuts.

Fate Engine - Turn everyday decisions into memorable reveals

Most random picker apps focus on getting a result as quickly as possible.Fate Engine takes a different approach. Instead of revealing the answer immediately, it adds a little anticipation and fun to the process through different ways of revealing the result. Whether you're making everyday decisions, playing games, or spending time with friends, each choice becomes a little more enjoyable. Choose from wheels, ritual card draws, balloon reveals, multiplayer touch selection, dice, and more.

FloatPlay - A floating video player for macOS

FloatPlay is a small macOS app I built to solve my own need for watching videos while working. It provides a clean, always-on-top floating video window, so videos stay visible without getting in the way. Designed to feel native on macOS, simple to use, and easy to live with every day.
