projects
01Fergie
Planting adviser for UK farmers. Built at the EP5 hackathon, Imperial College.
Drop a pin on a field and it pulls live data for that exact spot: forecast, soil pH, slope, sunlight, land use, satellite imagery. It returns a planting window and a suitability score. A language model explains the numbers and reads photos of crops, but the agronomy is deterministic Python, so it never invents a figure.

02UNTLD
Storefront for a friend's clothing brand.
Handwritten HTML, CSS and JavaScript. No framework, no build step. Drag to rotate the product, and a cart that survives a refresh.

03Inka
My automation business, selling workflow automation to UK small firms.
It started in n8n, handling missed call follow ups, booking and rescheduling. When the visual editor ran out of road I started writing my own tooling to build and patch the pipelines in code.
