I'm Adam. I run Sparkstone, a one-person software studio. I build the systems your business actually runs on: intake, scheduling, referral portals, client dashboards, and the sites that feed them. I work on a monthly retainer, so the person who built your systems is the one keeping them running.

We are a tiny team with big dreams of making zines more accessible for everyone. Adam showed sincere interest in our project, listened to our ramblings, asked great questions, and helped us build a website beyond what we'd hoped for. He was extremely creative, organized, and responsive throughout the process, which made him a great collaborator.

Sixty thousand views, three neighborhoods asking to borrow it, and a little map that got a bit better every spring until it turned into something anyone can run.
A private Instagram for your events. Guests scan a QR code to share photos, messages, and polls in real time with no app installs and no accounts for your guests.
A zine catalog, a printing guide, and an events page, built from a pile of draft copy in about two weeks.
Everyone should have the freedom to build software they’re proud of without sacrificing joy, balance, or humanity.
