work with me.
psst - I also do this for money.
anyone else you'd hire for this would need the community explained to them before the kickoff call. I won't - I live here. by day I'm an engineer, and this is that discipline pointed at orgs, events, venues, clubs, shops, archives, personal brands - if it's ours, it counts.

the payload.
- 01 community strategy
- for orgs, events, venues, clubs - anyone who wants more than a logo and a linktree.
- planning an event season, wrangling volunteers, keeping comms on schedule. I've been inside enough of these orgs to know where they break down.
- you get a plan with owners, dates, and a budget, one your team can run without me.
- 02 tech & web
- websites, link hubs, event pages, RSVP flows. static builds that load fast and cost almost nothing to host.
- when we're done you get the keys, the repo, and a README, so whoever comes after me can pick it up.
- exhibit A is the site you're reading.
- 03 brand identity
- a name, a wordmark, a palette and type that carry a whole identity - the nebula-and-constellation system on this site is the kind of thing I mean.
- I already speak the community's visual language, so the moodboard phase goes a lot faster.

three burns to orbit.
- 01ping. email me what you're trying to do. two sentences is plenty.
- 02scope. short chat, then a fixed scope and a quote. project-based; community rates exist.
- 03ship. I build it, hand it over, and stay reachable.
