Eight platforms. Zero investors. Built from a studio in Ballarat using Claude, 26 years of creative practice, and the refusal to wait for permission.
The method
I identify industries that are broken, write down every problem I've personally experienced inside them, then rebuild them from the ground up — flat fees, no commissions, and technology that actually works for the people using it.
The story
I'm a lifelong single parent, fine artist, and neurodivergent pattern recogniser. I got fired for dobbing in an abuser at a disability provider. I watched a participant nearly die because an agency prioritised roster convenience over human safety. Then I built something better.

Featured in British Vogue, World of Interiors, and House & Garden UK. The same eye that built a fine art career is now building platforms that challenge broken industries.

The work
Every platform shares the same foundation — flat membership fee, no commission, GPS tracking, verified operators, and a four-pillar engine re-skinned for each vertical. Built once. Deployed everywhere.
