The opportunity

Local development information is spread across public meetings, planning documents, and business announcements. Residents need a clear view of what is changing and why it matters.

What I work on

I research local projects and write newsletter coverage that organizes developments, business openings, and infrastructure updates for a Forsyth County audience.

Building beyond the newsletter

I’m developing a 2027 development guide to bring project details, maps, and timelines together in one resource. The guide is in development.

The product problem

Make an anonymous-to-the-recipient message possible without treating consent and abuse prevention as afterthoughts.

What I worked on

Connected account and phone verification, database-backed product flows, and SMS delivery using Supabase and Twilio. The product includes webhook-based message processing, recipient opt-in, moderation, and opt-out paths.

Product decisions

Recipients opt in before receiving messages. Senders use verified accounts, and contextual moderation and rate limits support abuse prevention.
