Hey everyone! 👋
I’ve finally done it. I have started my own Web & App Development Agency.
For the past year, I’ve been continuously working towards this dream. There were a lot of challenges, long hours, learning, failures, and moments when I questioned myself — but I kept going.
Today, I can finally say that I’ve turned that dream into reality. ❤️
I’ve spent countless hours learning, building real projects, solving problems, improving my skills, and gaining experience.
This isn’t just a business for me. It’s something I’ve worked incredibly hard for.
A dream I started with, a journey I’m proud of, and a new chapter I’m ready to build.
Let’s see where this journey takes me. 💙

The business of being creative deserves a considered workspace.
I built Dayrate for the work around the work: the brand conversation, the campaign deadline, the recorded payment, and the next introduction.
It brings those pieces into one connected creator studio.
Partnerships: move between a campaign grid and pipeline, with the brief, fee, status, and deliverables attached to the same record.
Delivery: see upcoming commitments on a calendar and export them as an ICS file.
Earnings: distinguish recorded fees from received amounts without pretending the interface is a payment processor.
Media kit: edit a creator profile and collaboration packages, then print a clean, shareable PDF through the browser.
The visual direction pairs warm paper tones, expressive typography, original synthetic campaign artwork, and restrained motion. I wanted the workspace to feel like a creative studio while keeping the operational details easy to scan.
A detail I cared about: the views share one underlying set of records. Updating a partnership should carry through to its calendar and earnings context, not create another isolated dashboard.
Built with React, TypeScript, and Vite. The release includes validated JSON backup and restore, CSV exports, reduced-motion support, keyboard-accessible interactions, and responsive layouts checked across six viewport sizes.
The public demo uses fictional creator data. Workspace changes stay in your current browser and device. This version does not include accounts, cloud sync, shared collaboration, or payment processing.
The narrated walkthrough below shows the complete workflow, with audio and no subtitles.
