Founder, Church Mentor

Jan '24 - Present

I'm passionate about simple tools. The goal of Church Mentor is to help churches use the simplest, most effective technology tools. I don't actively work on church mentor anymore, but I was able to have some great conversations though this endeavour as well as gain some marketing expertise.

Founder, NotesPro (Failed)

github.com/estout82/church-notes

Oct '21 - Sept '23

NotesPro was a platform to allow churches to create fill-in-the-blank style note pages to share with their congregation. There was some interest around the idea, but I was unable to find paying users due to my lack of marketing skills. It's not my best coding work anymore, but I'm still proud of it. I was moving fast to try to ship an MVP and definitely cut corners in the testing department.
