Hi, I'm Carmen Wheeler (@outsideofemiT)

Full-stack developer · Studio founder · Afrofuturist creator

I build custom web platforms for small businesses and creative entrepreneurs — from e-commerce storefronts to publishing experiences. Founder of Kairo Collective Studio, a boutique web design and development studio based in Texas.

Blending technical precision, intentional design, and cosmic storytelling into every project I ship.


What I Build

  • E-commerce platforms — full-stack Next.js storefronts with Stripe, auth, admin dashboards, and order management
  • Brand landing experiences — focused, conversion-driven sites for creative businesses and publishing projects
  • Studio tooling — internal tools, boilerplates, and systems for running a modern web studio

What I'm Working On

  • Che Bella Donna – Full-stack boutique e-commerce platform. Next.js + TypeScript + MongoDB + Stripe. Custom admin dashboard, email automation, USPS shipping integration. (Client handoff May 2026)

  • Sacred Roots Journal Series – E-commerce landing experience for my print journal line, published under Outside of emiT, my independent publishing imprint. Built and shipped as both developer and author. Next.js App Router + TypeScript, deployed on Vercel. View site →

  • Kairo Collective Studio – The official studio site for KCS, a boutique web design and development studio serving small businesses and creative entrepreneurs. Next.js + TypeScript. (In development)

  • Wheeler Family Tree – A family history and genealogy site built for the Wheeler family. Next.js + TypeScript, deployed on Vercel. (Private — family intake only)

  • Smart Gym – Full-stack TypeScript + React membership platform with QR check-in/out, café ordering UI, and Stripe integration.

  • Kairo Collective Studio Hub – Centralized studio OS for small business owners and creators. Project management, content planning, and brand asset management.
