Projects

The work I'm building at the moment — real-estate and lifestyle tools, privacy-first photo sharing, and local-first Android apps for keeping family archives readable. Each write-up covers the problem, the decisions behind it, and what it's built with.

Hoodz
Lifestyle-Driven Real Estate
In Development

Will my life actually work here? Hoodz helps people evaluate Australian properties against their actual life — commute, nearby gyms, transit, and neighbourhood vibe — not just bedrooms and bathrooms.

MemoryLink
Photo Memory Network
In Development

A decentralized, local-first photo sharing app for families and friends. People bring their own storage (S3, R2, self-hosted) and MemoryLink acts purely as an encrypted client and viewer over their own data.

Crumbs
Local-First Memory Journal
In Development

An Android journal for the stories you want to pass on. Every entry is kept twice — in the app, and as a plain Markdown file in a folder you chose, so the archive still opens in twenty years without the app.

memo-pic
Daily Photo Cataloguing
In Development

One small batch of undescribed photos a day, with dates, names and places written to XMP sidecars — never to the originals. Turns an unlabelled family archive into a habit small enough to actually keep.
