## Case studies

I designed and built a purchase-order PWA for Element Plastics, replacing paper and Excel so factory staff could create and track work orders in one place.

### Roman Yee Photography (2024)

I rebuilt NYC photographer Roman Yee’s portfolio on Next.js and Sanity so publishing new work is fast, migrating him off a CMS where one project could take over an hour.
