Exo-CTO
If your job is to manage the tech stack for your organization, and you've got at least two other directives that demand your focus as well ...
This is for you.
I "project manage" your tech stack, providing consistent maintenance, development and collaborative guidance.
You are able to offload all of this work to somone who is intelligent, communicative and supportive, getting peace of mind and freeing more of your time, in return.
Rates are $125 for businesses and $75 for non-profits, per hour.
Exo-CTO I ($1000 / month) [0/2]
Maintain your digital edge.
We meet once per week.
Eight hours per month / Two hours per week.
Exo-CTO II ($2500 / month) [0/2]
Advance a moderately intensive strategy.
We meet twice per week.
Five to eight hours per week.
Exo-CTO III ($5000 / month) [1/2]
Not full-time but accessible full-time.
Ten to fifteen hours per week.
Hours are flexible and roll-over on all levels; meaning, while paid on retainer, if hours are not fully used in one month, they will roll-over into the next month, compounding your hours.
If enough hours have accrued, a larger project can be accomplished with those hours.
Additionally, you are not paying for the hours of thought, you are paying for hours of action.
Why this work
I want to serve the organizations, and individuals, who might not otherwise have access to this level of expertise.
I love helping people. I have the technical aptitude, along with the communication skills, to do so at a level of extraordinary excellence, in service to wonderful people (you!).
It feels like a win-win to me.
Why work with me
- You want to be the best in your field, with a digital edge over the rest.
- You want your digital presence to be optimized, and accessible to you.
- You want access to technical expertise, time-tested strategies and hard-earned insight, to make your digital output the best that it can be.
- You want someone you can trust, someone who believes in you and your work, to help you build and manage your digital presence.

Skill Set
I bring together business, cultural and technical expertise to be an optimized asset to your work and organization.
I build web applications using Python (Django), JavaScript (VueJS) and Linux (Arch/Ubuntu) primarily; DigiSnaxx being my flag-ship personal project.
While I also help to maintain a bespoke WordPress implementation for a small non-profit; I've worked professionally on Drupal and Ruby On Rails projects as well for world-renown scientific institutions.
Strategy is poetree and composition to me; my academic studies brought together Economics, Statistics and Communications – the major/minor of my degree from the University of Minnesota Twin Cities – along with Sociology, Psychology and Anthropology, with a solid side of Eastern Philosophy.
I started as a Creative Writing major; and took over 20 years to graduate.
Oh yea, I'm 42 years old, so not exactly a youngin' either; I've seen a few things.
- https://edshareproject.org/ - built and re-designed using Drupal.
- https://documents.ipums.org/ - I brought from concept to product using Ruby on Rails (a formal paper was written about the work and process).
- https://unicornriot.ninja/ - currently helping to maintain and develop their WordPress installation.
