Projects
Still building.
Twenty-two years in and the interesting problems are still the ones nobody has solved yet. Advice ages badly if you stop shipping, so I keep one real thing in build at all times.
Benchside
A family-first hockey management platform. One schedule, one ledger, one household — even when that household spans two homes and three clubs.
Open Ice
The design language behind Benchside, and behind this site. Generous whitespace, one accent used sparingly, and club colour that enters through a single token — a crest upload rethemes the product without moving an edge.
Whatever's next
There is usually a second thing half-built. When it earns a name it lands here.
Benchside is running
In build, with demo data. Have a look at the family week view.
Why any of this sits on a coaching site
Most of what I coach is judgement under constraint — what to cut, what to sequence, when the architecture decision is actually a commercial one. Building keeps that honest. It is hard to advise a founder on scope discipline in the morning and then spend the evening gold-plating your own side project.
