JAMES BLACKWELL
Frontend developer building edge‑native, AI‑powered experiences that turn live data into ambient software.
WHAT I BUILD
- AI systems that see, listen, and speak. LLMs, vision, RAG — woven into playful, useful interfaces.
- End‑to‑end products: design, build, deploy, iterate — all built with simple, reliable surfaces.
- Pieces that surprise: ambient software that bickers with itself, real-time visual generation, and compelling narrative UX.
- Edge‑native web apps on Cloudflare (Workers, Durable Objects, R2, Stream) that run fast, globally, with zero‑ops.
MY CAREER
I spent eight years practicing psychotherapy learning to read patterns, clarify complex problems, and communicate concisely. That training shaped how I build software: start from human reality, then design the system around it.
Today I design and ship products that pair strong engineering with creative intention — Cloudflare at the edge, AI where it adds meaning — and interfaces that feel calm, alive, and delightful.
