Custom Web Portals
Secure customer, member, partner, or internal portals where people can log in, view account information, submit requests, track progress, and manage important workflows.
About
I’m a full-stack web engineer who helps businesses and organizations ship workflow-heavy web projects, including custom web portals, checkout flows, customer account experiences, admin dashboards, and backend-connected web applications.
My work sits at the intersection of front-end execution, user experience, and business systems. I build web experiences that support real operational workflows: customer accounts, order flows, invoice and card billing, admin review processes, API integrations, and backend system connections.
I’ve built and supported high-performance web experiences for brands including Soylent, Califia Farms, Gundry MD, SmartyPants Vitamins, Roundhouse Provisions, Badlands Ranch, Terra Mare, Dr. Marty Pets, Lone Wolf Ranch Pets, Activated You, Beverly Hills MD, Evergreen Safety Council, and Nitro Circus, among others.
I’m especially useful on projects where design, user experience, business logic, and backend workflows all need to work together. I can handle the front-end details while thinking through the larger system: checkout logic, account access, admin tools, API integrations, performance, maintainability, and what needs to happen after launch.
What I Build
I help replace manual processes with web-based systems that give customers, staff, and administrators a clearer way to get work done.
Customer Account Experiences
Account areas that go beyond a basic login, including order history, account-specific content, saved information, status updates, documents, and self-service tools.
Checkout & Order Flows
Custom product or service selection, Stripe payments, invoice billing, confirmation pages, order review, and checkout logic tailored to how your organization actually operates.
Admin Dashboards
Internal tools for reviewing orders, managing customers, tracking statuses, handling approvals, and giving your team visibility into the work that keeps the business moving.
Billing Workflows
Invoice/card billing flows, payment status tracking, customer records, and backend logic that helps reduce manual accounting handoffs.
System Integrations
Connections between tools like Supabase, PostgreSQL, Stripe, NetSuite, CRMs, APIs, and backend systems so your data does not have to be copied by hand.
