About

Hi, I'm heykentt — a software engineer turned indie builder. I left the corporate world to build my own things, on my own terms. Currently running a one-person studio, shipping products and experiments across mobile, web, and beyond.

What I'm Building

• Peppertree — umbrella studio for apps and digital products
• Rudolph Project — long-term experiment: ship hundreds of tiny apps, let winners emerge
• Yayastudio — seasonal music label on YouTube
• TheWorriedCat — print-on-demand brand with original designs

Philosophy

• I value things that don't change.
• I enjoy predicting and imagining the future.
• I'm drawn to starting small and lasting long.
• I believe in learning through hands-on experience.
• I'm learning about real life through entrepreneurship.
