Craft Meets Code
Meets Culture
A studio weaving 3D-printed creations, AI systems, and creative practices into tangible artifacts.
Three Pillars
Our name means "Three Feet" (Tres Pies). Like a tripod, these pillars keep the studio steady.
Physical Craft
Artwork, prototypes, and 3D-printed accessories that make ideas touchable.
Code + AI Workflows
Prompt systems, automation, and software that turns "I should do this someday" into "here's the next move."
Cultural Connection
The human layer—community, heritage, and the stories people carry into their work.
My Working Philosophy
Craft, Code, and Culture aren't just buzzwords—they are the principles that guide every project from start to finish.
Flexibility is Foundational
The modern web is not one-size-fits-all. As a multi-stack developer, I adapt to your project's unique needs, selecting the best technology—from Next.js to FastAPI—to achieve your goals efficiently. My T-shaped approach means I have the breadth to see the big picture and the depth to execute flawlessly.
Proof is the Product
Talk is cheap. I provide radical transparency throughout the development process. From the initial spec to the final delivery, you'll have a clear view of the work through detailed documentation, regular updates, and access to the build as it progresses. You see the value being created in real-time.
Speed with Intention
My process is built for momentum. By emphasizing clear communication and agile workflows, I eliminate bottlenecks and deliver high-quality work, fast. Whether it's a rapid prototype or a full-stack AI integration, the goal is always to get you to market with a solution that works, beautifully.
Multi-Stack Capabilities
Not limited to one framework. I work with your existing tech or recommend the best stack for your needs.
