— About

Small team energy,
serious output.

I'm a freelance web developer based on Koh Phangan (Phangan Island), Thailand — building custom software for small businesses that need real tools, not templates. I work remotely with clients across Europe, Southeast Asia and Australia, and I'm reachable when something breaks at 11pm.

Most of my clients run lean operations: a resort, a rental shop, a construction company. They don't need a 12-person agency and a $10k minimum. They need someone who understands their workflow, builds fast, and delivers something their team will actually use.

Digital
Concierge

Guests scan a QR code on the nightstand and get everything they actually need — checkout info, pool hours, taxi contacts, nearby restaurants, what to do if the AC dies. Fully branded per property. No app download, no login, works offline.

Bike
Rental

Most rental shops on the island run on handshakes and sticky notes. This changes that — track your fleet, log who has what bike, flag overdue returns, and stop losing 5,000 baht deposits because someone forgot to write things down.

Quotation
App

A local electrician was quoting jobs in Word, copy-pasting the same header every time, and losing track of what he'd sent to who. Now he fills in the job details, hits print, and gets a professional PDF — with his logo, the client's info, and a full line-item breakdown. Past quotes stay saved and can be reprinted any time.

Mini HR
& Payroll

Built for a small team in Thailand — handles attendance tracking, monthly payroll calculation, payslip generation, and leave requests. Simple enough that a non-tech manager can run it alone on day one. Complicated things stay behind the scenes.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a custom web app cost?

It depends on scope, but most small business projects land between $300–$2,000. A simple booking system or rental tracker is on the lower end. A multi-tenant SaaS with OTA sync and email automation is on the higher end. I give fixed-price quotes — no hourly surprises.

Do you work with clients outside Thailand?

Yes — most of my work is remote. I'm based on Koh Phangan (UTC+7) and work with clients in Europe, Australia and Southeast Asia. Communication is async-friendly: I document everything and don't require daily calls.

Can you maintain or update the app after launch?

Yes. I hand over full source code and documentation so you're never locked in. I'm also available for ongoing fixes, updates and new features — either on a per-task basis or a small monthly retainer if you want priority response.

What if I just need a small fix or a consultation?

That's fine. Send me a message and describe what you need. Small jobs, one-off fixes, database rescues, SEO audits — I take those too. If it's a 30-minute thing I'll tell you upfront and won't drag it into a bigger project.

How long does it take to build?

A focused small project takes 1–2 weeks. More complex apps with multiple roles, integrations or custom logic take 4–6 weeks. I work fast because I don't have layers of project managers, designers and developers between you and the code.

What's the difference between you and a web agency?

You talk directly to the person writing the code. No account managers, no handoffs, no markup for overhead. Agencies are great for large teams with ongoing retainers — I'm better for small businesses that need something built fast, working well, and without a $10k minimum.

I'm not technical. Can you still help me?

That's most of my clients. You describe the problem — "I'm managing 12 bungalows in a spreadsheet and it keeps breaking" — and I figure out what needs to be built. You don't need to know what a database is. You just need to know what's frustrating about your current workflow.

Do you help with software repair or Windows reinstall on a laptop?

Yes — living on an island, I know exactly what it feels like when your work machine stops working and there's nowhere to take it. I do help with this, but only for Windows and Android devices. Apple devices I leave to people who actually like them.
