Digital Archives & Cultural Heritage Technology

I build digital archives that libraries can run themselves.

What I Focus On

Digital Archive Platforms

Omeka S as a headless backend with a custom Next.js frontend, so an archive looks and behaves like a modern site instead of a CMS theme.

AI-Assisted Transcription

Handwritten cursive that defeats traditional OCR, transcribed with Claude Vision and reviewed by an archivist before any of it gets published.

Cataloging & Staff Training

The part that decides whether an archive keeps growing: library staff catalog into the system themselves, without a developer in the loop.
