Curve Appeal
Understand your body. Feel confident in your curves.
A proportion calculator that runs entirely on your device. Snap a photo, drop a few overlays, and get ratio-based insight — breast, eye and lip proportions, the 2D:4D digit ratio, and golden-ratio facial analysis. Photos are never uploaded or stored.
- 100% on-device — photos never leave your phone
- Five proportion analyses
- Golden ratio & 2D:4D digit ratio
- Private, anonymized history
Hockey analytics · Decision intelligence
Beyond the Metric
Measuring how players read the game.
Coaches upload arena game video and Breakout IQ scores every decision moment against a research-backed rubric — turning raw footage into a Team IQ and player profiles that coaches and parents can actually use.
- Scores every on-ice decision moment
- Research-backed rubric → Team IQ
- Strong / slow / missed reads
- Player profiles for coaches & parents

A couple of things I rebuilt from the original site
The first version of this site (circa 2012) ran these on a Django backend. They now live entirely in your browser.

About
I build platforms — and the teams behind them.
I'm an engineering leader with 10+ years building and scaling enterprise SaaS platforms, APIs and developer ecosystems — lately with a focus on AI-powered, data-driven product capabilities. Most recently I led US engineering for Zoom's App Marketplace; before that, I spent years at SurveyMonkey growing its developer platform and integrations. The projects above are what I build on my own time.
