Drop the Code. See the Selfie.
Hi, I'm Jean.
By day, I'm a builder at heart. I design and develop small apps and micro-SaaS businesses.
I love tinkering with code, solving niche problems, and launching tools that make people's lives a little easier. There's something rewarding about creating experiences that actually work for people.
Outside of software, my life is all about real-world connection and exploration.
I've traveled a lot. I've called many different states home over the years. That's given me a deep appreciation for the unique rhythm of different neighborhoods.
I spend my evenings documenting what I see, uncovering local events, and sharing stories in my newsletter. It's a space dedicated to celebrating the quirks, hidden gems, and triumphs of local communities across the country.
To help bring these stories to life, I'm building a small team of contributors who care as much as I do.
We come from wildly different backgrounds. Our group includes a freelance graphic designer, a local barista, a former deep-sea welder, and even a retired rodeo clown.
We're scattered across the map. Some of us are in big hubs like Chicago and Denver. Others dial in from quiet corners like Yellow Springs, Ohio, and Marfa, Texas.
No matter what we do for a living or where we live, we share one thing: a genuine love for local communities and a drive to pass on positive energy to the people around us.
