Side project

Headliner.
An experiment in building with AI.

I wanted to see how far one person could take a real product by building alongside AI. It became Headliner, a website platform for bands and artists, designed and built on my own.

Plus a client portal, a proposal builder and other tools I’ve built along the way.
