Aegis Platform

Co-Founder • CEO • Product Owner • Lead Designer • Front-End Developer

As an avid user of internet-connected devices, I’ve accumulated several products into my home and life. Having all these devices required installing a companion mobile app for each one, and most didn’t even have a web interface. There are services like Wink and SmartThings that try to bring all these things to one place, but still, there is not just one place to look to see the current state of all your devices.

That’s how Aegis was created! I set out with a couple of partners to create a platform that would bring a consumer-oriented solution to the masses. It offered real-time updates, a status panel to see the current state of the home, full control of devices, personalization, and much more...

Cribbble - Invite Platform for Dribbble

Product Owner • Lead Designer • Full-Stack Developer

As an active member of the Dribbble design community, an invite-only show and tell platform for designers, I found that it was somewhat difficult to find new, talented individuals to invite to the site. Dribbble’s built-in solution for this at the time was to list current prospect’s names and basic info. I found this to be somewhat lacking as there wasn't an easy way to determine how talented these individuals were, and if they were a good match for my design style. That is how Cribbble was born. This tool allowed current Dribbble prospects to post one shot that represents their best work. They could also showcase a profile with a link to their full portfolio. In addition to this, any current Dribbble player could post invite opportunities, and browse and invite talent right from within the tool.
