Rails AI-Augmented Products

I pair Ruby on Rails with AI agents to ship production apps at startup speed. Full product builds, from idea to live users.

Right now

Building an AI-powered Rails agent, think v0 and Lovable, but for Ruby on Rails. One prompt to a full, production-ready app with RapidRails UI components, Hotwire, and Tailwind. Shipping soon.

Also maintaining RapidRails (UI component library for Rails) and FixOurHood (civic reporting for Toronto neighborhoods).

I build products.

I started in design, moved to frontend, and landed on the thing I care about most: building products that people actually use. Not prototypes. Not demos. Real products with real customers.

Everything I build runs on my own Ruby on Rails stack and I pair it with AI tools like Claude Code to ship at a pace that used to require entire teams. FixOurHood was built 90% with AI-assisted development and is live in production. That's the workflow now: deep problem domain knowledge and developer expertise paired with AI speed.

A little more about me

I write code — with AI.

I got my start as a designer, but became obsessed with the gap between beautiful mockups and real, working software. That led to years of frontend & backend development, then UI component architecture, and now building full products from scratch.

Today I work with AI as a development partner. Claude Code, cursor-based workflows, agentic tools, I use them daily to write, review, and ship code faster. Not to replace thinking, but to multiply output. The result: I ship products in weeks that used to take months.
