Websites and rebuilds
Fast, readable sites for organizations that need a stronger public face, cleaner content, and fewer things held together by habit.
Independent software partner
Practical software for teams that need the work to move.
I build websites, data platforms, and internal tools for small organizations that need senior technical help without turning the project into theater.

Selected work
Real systems, with organizations behind them.
I've shipped live SaaS products, civic and membership platforms, and the tdarby.com family of sites — including GrantCue, Volunteer Clinton County, the Rotary Club of Downtown Lock Haven, and WellStockd — alongside desktop apps and developer tools.
SaaS platform
GrantCue
A multi-tenant platform that ingests the federal Grants.gov catalog plus eleven state portals on a schedule, then layers AI discovery, fit-scoring, and proposal drafting over a full team pipeline.
- Scheduled ETL from 13 grant sources
- Postgres full-text + pgvector search
- AI scoring & proposal writing
- Stripe billing, RLS, virus scanning
Civic platform
Volunteer Clinton County
A civic platform I co-founded and developed, where local organizations post volunteer opportunities, events, and donation drives and residents sign up and log hours — on a hardened, security-first data model.
- Multi-tenant, dedicated Postgres schema
- Row-level security + DB-enforced workflow
- Org↔volunteer messaging + maps
- Volunteer clearances & hour verification
Membership website
Rotary Club of Downtown Lock Haven
A pro bono CMS-backed membership site I developed for the club — not a brochure. Officers manage content from a custom dashboard; members get gated downloads and event RSVPs; every public form is spam-protected.
- Payload CMS + PostgreSQL
- Custom Refine admin dashboard
- Member portal + gated downloads
- RSVPs, CMS forms, full SEO
Kitchen PWA
WellStockd
A touch-first recipe and fridge-inventory app that lives on a fridge-mounted tablet. Cook a recipe and the ingredients subtract themselves; run out of something and it lands on the shopping list.
- Inventory-aware "What can I make"
- Cook → auto-subtract → shopping list
- Weekly planner + cooking mode
- One-tap Walmart cart hand-off
Services
The work I am best set up to own.
Automation and data cleanup
Imports, exports, admin workflows, scripts, and small systems that remove repetitive work from inboxes and spreadsheets.
Internal tools
Secure dashboards, role-aware workflows, forms, reporting surfaces, and operational apps for teams with real process behind them.
Data platforms and products
Multi-tenant apps, ingestion pipelines, and practical MVPs with durable architecture and a bias toward shipping the useful version first.
