I've got bandwidth for new projects right now. If you're building something with Next.js, React, or AI integrations, here's what I do:
Full-Stack Next.js Development
The bread and butter. I build production-ready web apps, SaaS platforms, and multi-tenant systems from scratch or jump into existing codebases. TypeScript, Tailwind, GraphQL, Node.js, Figma to code. $40/hr, typically scoped in 2-week sprints.
I shipped CertsLibrary (certslibrary.com) this way — a multi-tenant SaaS platform with 175+ paying users, built end to end in Next.js.
AI Feature Integration
If you've got a web app and want to bolt on AI features that actually work — chat interfaces, content generation, OpenAI API integrations, streaming responses, prompt engineering — that's my thing. $45/hr.
Not the "slap ChatGPT on it" kind. The kind where the AI feature is properly integrated into your product, handles errors gracefully, and doesn't cost you $500/day in API calls because nobody optimized the prompts.
Frontend Performance Audit & Optimization
Your app is slow and you're not sure why. I'll run a full audit — Core Web Vitals, Lighthouse, code splitting, lazy loading, the works — and give you a concrete plan to fix it. Then I'll fix it. 3-week engagement, contact me for pricing.
The short version
I build fast, production-grade Next.js apps. I integrate AI features that don't embarrass you. I make slow frontends fast.
If any of that sounds like what you need, send me a message.
Really solid positioning — the focus on practical AI integrations and production-grade Next.js apps stands out.
Thanks

🚨 “Frontend is dead.”
That’s what people said when AI arrived.
They were wrong.
🤖 AI can generate code.
🎨 AI can create basic UI.
⚡ AI can write boilerplate.
But AI still cannot:
❌ Understand what your client actually wants
❌ Convert a Figma design pixel perfectly
❌ Make real design decisions
❌ Debug complex UI interactions
❌ Build scalable component architecture
❌ Think creatively about user experience
🛠️ I use AI every single day in my workflow:
→ Claude AI for problem solving & code review
→ Cursor for faster development
→ v0.dev for rapid UI components
→ OpenAI API for building AI features
→ Framer for smooth animations
⚡ AI handles the repetitive work.
🧠 I handle the thinking.
The ones who “died”?
The ones who refused to adapt.
🚀 Frontend isn’t dead.
It evolved.

Excited to share some of the backend work I've been doing lately with Supabase! 🚀
Here's a look at what went into building a production-ready backend from scratch:
🗄️ Database Schema Design
Designed a relational schema with multiple interconnected tables: profiles, notes, reminders, conflicts, and a dedicated user_keys table for encryption key management. Every table has proper foreign key relationships, timestamps, and nullable/non-nullable constraints enforced at the DB level.
🔒 Row Level Security (RLS)
Every single table has RLS enabled with two policies: users can only access their own rows, and anonymous access is blocked entirely. No exceptions. Security is enforced at the database layer, not just the application layer.
🔑 Auth & Email Flows
Set up Supabase Auth with email + OAuth support, including full PKCE flow for secure token exchange. Configured deep link redirects for email confirmation and password reset flows, all tested end to end.
⚡ Edge Functions
Built and deployed multiple Supabase Edge Functions handling AI processing pipelines, including JWT validation at the top of every function before any processing begins. The OpenAI API key lives exclusively in Supabase secrets, never in the app or any config file.
🔄 Merge Pipeline
Built a follow-up note merge pipeline as an Edge Function. New facts are appended to existing profiles, duplicates are detected and skipped, conflicts are logged, and resolved reminders are handled gracefully.
📦 Migrations
All schema changes go through versioned migration files under source control. No manual dashboard changes. CI/CD triggers migrations automatically on merge to main.
🔐 Encryption Architecture
Client-side AES-GCM encryption via CryptoKit. Plaintext never sits in the database. Encryption keys are stored in a dedicated RLS-scoped table, fetched after login, and held in memory only for the session duration.
Still a lot more to share about this project. Excited to talk about it publicly when it launches! 👀
Interesting work! Nice 🔥 Have there been any bottlenecks so far in testing?
AI is no longer just a chatbot feature.
The biggest shift happening in web development right now is: AI-native user experiences.
Web apps are evolving from static dashboards into intelligent products that can:
Understand user intent
Generate content instantly
Automate workflows
Personalize experiences in real time
Replace complex manual tasks with simple prompts
2026 is becoming the year of: ✨ AI Agents ✨ Voice-first Interfaces ✨ AI-Powered SaaS ✨ Real-time AI Collaboration ✨ Multi-modal Web Apps
As a Full Stack Developer, I’m actively building scalable AI-driven platforms using:
Next.js
React
Node.js
AWS
OpenAI APIs
Real-time infrastructure
Payment & automation systems
The future of web development is not just responsive UI. It’s intelligent experiences.
