I've always believed that some of the best tools come from people who actually deal with the problems they're trying to solve.
I work in security systems, low-voltage installations, and IT. Over time, I started noticing how many hours professionals lose on repetitive tasks, manual calculations, documentation, and inefficient workflows.
So I decided to start building my own solutions.
That's how NEXORA started.
Some of the projects I've developed so far include:
Bluebeam Revu Toolkits for CCTV, access control, fire alarm systems, AV, networking, and data center infrastructure.
Takeoff & Quote Studio, an application designed to help turn drawing quantities into cost estimates and client quotations.
Excel-based tools for project tracking, equipment schedules, and technical documentation.
Workflow automation solutions aimed at reducing repetitive administrative work.
I'm not trying to build another complicated platform that people have to spend weeks learning.
I'm interested in creating practical tools that solve real problems and make everyday work easier.
I'm also open to working with freelancers, contractors, small businesses, and professionals who need customized solutions or might be interested in partnerships and product distribution.
I'd genuinely like to ask: what's one repetitive task in your work that you wish someone could simplify or automate?
Sometimes a good product starts with a conversation.

Made another web tool, this time for liquid shapes. Everything you see here came out of it.
Built with Claude Code (Opus 5.5) and Toolcraft. It’s a React app that runs entirely in the browser, with a custom WebGL2 path tracer and Intel’s OIDN denoiser on WebGPU, exporting seamless 4K loops.
Building design tools has changed how I think about my job. I used to focus on making the visuals. Now I think more about building the system that makes them, so a client’s brand can keep growing after the project is done.
I think more designers will work this way soon, and more founders will expect it.
hypnotizing!
AI Agent for ServiceNow Automation (LangGraph + GPT-4o-mini + Slack, Jira, Email)
I built a LangGraph agent that turns natural-language requests into ServiceNow incidents, so users never have to open the ServiceNow UI. A StateGraph workflow pairs an LLM node (GPT-4o-mini) that understands the request with a tool node that runs the ServiceNow Table REST API. It supports caller, description, and assignment group fields, and it resolves group names to sys_ids by looking them up in the sys_user_group table, so users can just say “Network Team”. The agent is exposed through a Flask REST endpoint and an interactive CLI, with credentials kept in environment variables and error handling around every API call. I then extended the same pattern to Slack, Email, and Jira to automate workflows across platforms.
Understand: The LLM node interprets the request and extracts the caller, description, and assignment group.
Act: The tool node executes ServiceNow actions through the Table REST API.
Resolve: Group names are looked up in the sys_user_group table to get the sys_id, so users refer to teams by name.
Expose: A Flask REST endpoint and an interactive CLI give two ways to use the agent.
Secure and robust: Credentials are managed through environment variables, and API calls have error handling.
Extend: The same agent pattern was reused for Slack, Email, and Jira integrations.

Planora is a landing page design for a project management platform built for small and growing teams. I designed it in Figma to make a crowded product category feel simple, clear and approachable.
The goal
Project management tools often feel crowded and hard to start using. The page needed to explain the product quickly, build trust and lead visitors to one clear action: start a free trial.
My process
Structured the page so each section answers one question: what it is, what it does, who it’s for, how to start and what it costs
Alternated light, dark and gradient sections to keep a long page easy to scan
Used glossy 3D visuals and a purple accent system to make the brand feel modern and premium
Built icon cards for features, use cases and setup steps, so visitors can scan instead of read
Repeated one primary call to action in the hero, mid-page banners, pricing and the final section
The result
A complete SaaS landing page, from hero to footer, with a consistent visual system and a clear path from first impression to free trial.
Tools: Figma, Phosphor Icons
