Community technologist/Haverstraw, New York/Grown from concrete

Structures decide. So I build better ones.

Websites, tools, and public records for organizations doing front-line work — legal advocacy, community organizing, human services, and the small businesses that hold a block together. Before I built for this work, I did it.

What I Build

Three lines of work

Civic software /

Sites that put documented, checkable information where people can reach it — filings, timelines, primary sources. Every claim traceable to something you can open yourself.

Community websites /

Nonprofits, small businesses, neighborhood institutions. Phone first, findable in local search, and in more than one language when the community speaks more than one.

AI fluency /

Coaching for organizations that want to use these tools without being fooled by them. The discipline is checking what the machine hands you against evidence.

Bad Faith Prosecution

A public record of the Broadview Six case, built so that every claim traces back to the filing it came from. I read the federal docket and checked each date and statute before any of it shipped.

Grown From Concrete

My own writing, including an honest accounting of my AI use — the full corpus exported, classified by an analyzer I built, independently audited, then verified again from scratch on a competitor’s tools.

Serie 32 Grocery

A Dominican-owned bodega. Local search built around how neighbors actually look for a corner store, with DoorDash ordering wired in rather than a checkout the store did not need.

Latinos en Axión STL

I ran the website and built out the Spanish translation — and worked Cover Missouri outreach, helping people enroll in health coverage under the Affordable Care Act.

Most people who build for community organizations have never worked inside one. I have. I know what it is like to need the website to do one specific thing for somebody who is counting on it, today, with no budget and no time.

That is also why I will not hand you something you cannot check. If I say a page is faster, there is a number. If I say a tool got something right, there is a source. Concrete is what the city is poured out of — it is also what things push up through.
