A developer
who designs.
A designer
who ships.
Hi, I'm Mau — I build fast, responsive websites and web apps — from polished landing pages to complex, full-stack platforms — with clean code and thoughtful UX.
Four things,
done well.
I keep the menu small on purpose. Most engagements blend two of these — a brand-and-build, or a design-and-rescue. Pick the closest one and we'll sort the rest in discovery.
Brand & Web Design
Identity systems, art direction, and design that makes a small brand look like the bigger room. Figma to pixel-perfect handoff.
Full-stack Development
Next.js, React, TypeScript. Static-first, performance-obsessive. Headless CMS, payments, auth, and the long tail of glue that ships product.
Product UI Engineering
For teams that already have a designer. I take a brief or a Figma and turn it into a real, accessible, motion-tuned interface.
Audits & Rescues
A focused week to diagnose performance, SEO, accessibility, or a project that has drifted. You get a written plan and a working PR.
Six projects,
worth a closer look.
Small studio,
shipped weekly.
Most engagements run six weeks. You get a staging URL on day two, a working homepage by Friday of week one, and a real handoff at the end.
Discovery
A working session to map the goal, audience, and constraints. We end with a written brief — not a deck.
Direction
Two visual directions, each with a hero, a section, and a project tile. We pick one. No mood boards. No 60-page kit.
Build
Design and engineering happen in the same Figma + repo. You see staging the day after kickoff and every weekday after.
Handoff
Docs, a Loom walkthrough, and 30 days of free fixes. After that, we either part as friends or sign a care plan.
Boring tech,
used well.
About Me
I'm Mau — a senior web developer with years of hands-on experience shipping production websites and web apps. I work comfortably across the stack: crafting polished interfaces with React, Next.js, and Tailwind CSS, and building resilient backends with Node.js (Fastify), Python (FastAPI), or PHP (Laravel).
I've delivered projects across CMS ecosystems — WordPress, Drupal, Shopify, Webflow, Contentful, and HubSpot — and I care about the parts users don't see: well-modeled databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, Supabase), clean APIs, and fast page loads.
I translate Figma designs faithfully, write code that's easy to hand off, and treat performance, SEO, and accessibility as defaults rather than afterthoughts. When I'm not coding, I'm probably exploring new tools or sharpening a skill on a side project.
Recent writing.
Let's build
something good.
