Code is the day job, but the making doesn't stop there. Here's what I tinker with on the side — from physical objects to open-source packages.
VIRA — 3D-printed lamps

All on GitHub →One place to define every string key in your Laravel app — cache, queues, sessions, broadcast channels — templated, validated, and typo-proof.

I also built Custodian — a repository-pattern toolkit for querying many data sources behind one fluent, Eloquent-style API. That whole journey (and why we walked most of it back) is the subject of my There and back again talk.
