Rails Consultant & AI Code Refactoring Expert - Pittsburgh

Independent Rails expert - Agency-quality work without agency overhead

Deep Rails & JavaScript Expertise

I specialize in Ruby on Rails, Hotwire/Turbo, Stimulus, React, and modern JavaScript frameworks.

With over a decade building production Rails applications and complex JavaScript frontends.

From Rails API backends to React SPAs, Hotwire-powered real-time features to vanilla JavaScript - I've built it all.

Struggling with AI-Generated Code?

AI tools like ChatGPT and Claude generate code fast, but often create:

  • Rails anti-patterns - N+1 queries, missing validations, insecure params
  • Broken JavaScript - Race conditions, memory leaks, promise hell
  • "It worked once" code that breaks with real data
  • Security vulnerabilities - SQL injection, XSS, exposed credentials
  • Unmaintainable spaghetti - No tests, poor structure, zero documentation

I refactor AI-generated code into production-ready, maintainable solutions while teaching you what went wrong and how to work with AI tools effectively.

Working Directly with Stakeholders & Marketing Teams

I collaborate directly with non-technical stakeholders, product owners, and marketing teams to get projects launched successfully.

Not sure if you need a rewrite? Start with a code audit to understand the true state of your codebase and get actionable recommendations.
