Hi there! I’m Luke
8x certified Salesforce Developer, indie tabletop roleplaying game publisher, and writer
I’m passionate about digital creativity and finding new ways to engage with my creative work. As a professional software developer, I love that building applications is an incredibly creative practice, and I get to tell stories and solve puzzles for a living.
8x Certified Senior Salesforce Developer
I’ve worked for years in the Salesforce ecosystem for the greater part of a decade, helping clients in a wide range of industries implement top-tier solutions. I specialize in building in Apex and with Lightning Web Components, as well as working with external integrations of all kinds.
Recent Projects
Anyone familiar with me knows that I always have something bouncing around.
Some of the things exciting enough to make it through the creative chaos and out the other side are below.
Journey
Design and self-publishing of a bestselling worldbuilding tabletop roleplaying game for writers, game designers, game masters, and creatives of all stripes
Journey is a Mithral Bestseller on DriveThruRPG, in the top 0.4% of all titles on one of the world’s most popular tabletop roleplaying game marketplaces
ALERT! Salesforce AppExchange Component
Creation and publishing of a simple, reusable Salesforce Lightning Component that allows for easy visual feedback on Lightning App Builder pages, especially when combined with conditional visibility settings.
Tome for Game Masters & Players
Creation and self-publishing of a set of “creative campaign journals” aimed at helping tabletop roleplaying game players gain new inspiration and take fresh creativity into their games.
The Tiny Table Index
Creation of a community-driven directory of solo and duet tabletop roleplaying games, their supplements, and the external tools made for them.
At its peak, the Index held over 450 titles that were largely submitted by the community, whether the publishers of the games themselves or their passionate players.
The Tiny Table Index has been retired and the dataset from the time of closure posted on the Graycastle Press website, preserved for the TTRPG community to utilize. Multiple website have used it to create some fantastic new resources.
Deals of Opportunity
This web app built with Python, Django and Celery allows tabletop roleplaying gamers to get automatic notifications to their email inbox when a game or title they want goes on sale.
Created to fill a functionality gap left in the DriveThruRPG website (one of the world’s most popular tabletop roleplaying game marketplaces) where users would have to manually check if titles on their wishlists were for sale.
Deals of Opportunity has since been retired due to DriveThruRPG finally implementing notifications on sales for games on users’ wishlists.
