Why I Built a Submission Gateway
I needed a way to securely send form data from my static site to my CMS without exposing API keys in client-side code. What started as a solution to that problem became Threshold, a standalone submission gateway on Cloudflare Workers that handles authentication, CORS, bot protection, rate limiting, and request forwarding for any frontend-to-backend communication.

Projects
BillChill
Personal bill tracker with a just-in-time data model. The database is a lean ledger of payments only so bill state (upcoming, due, paid, overdue) is computed in memory from blueprints and today's date. There are no pending rows, no resets, and no background jobs. Built on TanStack Start and Cloudflare Workers + D1.
