All The Food - Custom Toolbox

A pair of tools built for a hospitality venue's day-to-day: an online ordering site where customers browse the menu, pick a delivery day and check out in a few taps, plus an invoicing tool that lets the team raise, send and track invoices without wrestling with spreadsheets. Both are in everyday use, with a simple back-of-house view so nothing slips through the cracks.

  • Invoicing tool
  • Hosted & maintained

Tare Calorie Tracker

A custom calorie and macro tracker, built for one client and built around exactly how they eat. Quick meal logging, a daily readout of calories and macros, a saved-foods list for meals they eat often, and a week-at-a-glance view. It installs straight to their phone's home screen and opens full-screen like a real app.

  • Private access only
  • Installs like an app
  • Built & hosted by me

What a build with me looks like

  1. Step 1Free mockup

    I design a homepage for your business first, so you can see what I can do, before spending a cent.

  2. Step 2Build

    Once you're happy, I build it properly. Quick to load, great on phones, with your own words and photos.

  3. Step 3Launch

    We sort your web address, hosting, security and Google listing. You get the keys to your site at the end of the project.

  4. Step 4 Look after it

04 / About

Bright mind, brighter builds

I was building websites and learning my way around a lighting desk at the same time a few years ago, and never picked a side.

Both have since turned into real work: full-stack web and app builds for small business, and live event lighting design and operation across Brisbane and South East Queensland.

The overlap isn't technical, HTML and DMX have nothing in common. It's that both jobs are about making something complicated feel effortless to whoever's on the other end, a customer on their phone or a crowd in a room.
