THE PERSON BEHIND THE PROJECTS
Hey, I'm Dean.
I started Home Based Daddy because I love turning ideas into things people can actually use. Some of those ideas help businesses run more smoothly. Others help people stay connected.
What they have in common is the belief that technology works best when it makes life simpler, not more complicated.
I lead Home Based Daddy, LLC and our BillFound and Kueola projects, with hands-on experience working on software integrations and payments. I care about keeping the experience straightforward, useful, and human.
