AI-NATIVE BUILDER

I don't just use AI tools -- I live on the frontier of AI adoption. Claude, Cursor, and AI-assisted development aren't add-ons to my workflow; they are the workflow. From managing my day job's 400+ app pipeline to shipping indie products solo, AI amplifies every decision, every line of code, every launch.

The Road Here

I served in the United States Marine Corps from 2002 to 2006, and I have been out since 2006. That chapter shaped my discipline, but today my focus is software, product execution, and building useful tools.

After the military I found software engineering. Today I'm a Senior Software Engineer at HqO, where I manage the build and release pipeline for 400+ white-label mobile apps. I know what it takes to ship at scale.

In 2024 I founded NEON SUMMIT LLC to channel all of that into my own products -- including Vitarc, a goal-focused iOS app designed to help people stay consistent.

PDF GUIDE + CONFIG FILES

The Launch Day Security Kit

I've watched too many launch posts end with "help, someone found my API keys."

After securing 400+ apps at my day job, I packed the 20% of security that prevents 80% of attacks into one kit. The stuff you forget when you're racing to ship.

Lock down your app in 30 minutes. Copy, paste, ship.

$ ls ./kit-contents/
-> 6-chapter security guide (PDF) -> Rate limiting configs (Express + Next.js) -> Cloudflare WAF rules (importable JSON) -> .gitignore templates (Node, Next.js, Python) -> Environment variable checklist -> Emergency response playbook
> Get the Kit -- $19 Instant download via Gumroad
BUILT FOR
> Indie hackers about to launch
> Solo devs using Cursor, Bolt, or Claude
