Founder, Full stack developer
My brother and I built Cereal Reads in 2023–2024 to solve a common challenge for serial fiction authors using Patreon: they want to offer a truly subscription-worthy reading experience, but Patreon isn’t designed for long-form, serialized content. Our app integrates with Patreon to make serial fiction easier to read, listen to, and navigate for both authors and subscribers alike. Read our story here.
I built the mobile app, integrating with Patreon's API to authenticate subscribers, gate content based on membership tiers, track reading progress, and keep readers engaged.
Some of the Features I Built

In-Line Comments
In-line comments to keep readers engaged.
