2021 — 2026

Experience

Two years of B2B commerce systems, a studio of my own, and two universities in two countries. Here is what each of them actually involved.

Shipped software, not coursework

Most of what I know came from systems other people depended on: stock that had to reconcile, invoices that had to balance, dealer portals that had to stay up while someone in another country was placing an order.

The studio came after, and it changed the job. Now the brief starts before the code, with what a manufacturer needs a buyer abroad to find, and in which language.
