I build. I don't just advise.

I've been shipping production software for fifteen years — the kind that runs in real businesses, gets used every day, and has to keep working when nobody's watching it. Before Gardner Tech Group I worked on developer platforms and infrastructure at a handful of software companies.

I started this practice because small-business owners in the DC Metro kept asking me for the same kinds of fixes as a favor: one sheet, one text-message loop, one thing that should be automatic but isn't. I enjoy that work. I'm faster at it than you'd expect.
