PROJECT 01
Michi
A local-first daily practice app built around eight Japanese philosophy concepts, combining guided reflection, mindful activities, journaling, streaks, and visible progress in one calm experience.
INDEPENDENT MIND. CONSIDERED WORK.
ENGINEERING / DESIGN / PERSPECTIVEHi, I’m Mark. An independent web engineer with a focus on privacy and an eye for design. I turn complex ideas into clear, considered digital experiences.

01 / SELECTED WORK
PROJECT 01
A local-first daily practice app built around eight Japanese philosophy concepts, combining guided reflection, mindful activities, journaling, streaks, and visible progress in one calm experience.
PROJECT 02
A live market-intelligence workspace that makes crypto signal structure, supporting evidence, invalidation, and measured performance visible instead of presenting a black-box recommendation.
02 / WHAT I BRING
I care about how things work and how they feel. I bring both perspectives to the same table, with a direct line from your idea to the person building it.
Tell me what you have in mind ↗From the systems underneath to the interfaces you touch. Maintainable backends and responsive experiences built around what your project needs.
PYTHON / DJANGO / JAVASCRIPT / VUE
Careful data handling, clear APIs, and privacy-conscious decisions from the start. The quieter details that make a product better to use and maintain.
A photographer’s attention to composition and detail, carried into the browser. Clear layouts, purposeful interactions, and space for the content to speak.
03 / HOW WE’LL WORK
A conversation first.
A considered path from there.
We talk through your idea, the people it’s for, and what a useful outcome looks like. A clear scope gives the work direction.
I turn that direction into an interface and the engineering behind it, sharing progress so we can shape the details together.
We review the experience, test the important flows, and work through the finishing touches before handing over the project.
PERSONAL PERSPECTIVE
Looking closer.
Seeing things a little differently.
