PROJECT 02 / INTERNAL SUPPORT SOFTWARE

CALL FRIEND

A working recreation of an internal support application that became part of the daily workflow for hundreds of technical support agents.

01 / OVERVIEW

An internal tool that became infrastructure.

Call Friend began as a support utility I built while working in technical support. It organized troubleshooting information and gave agents a faster way to move through common technical and billing workflows.

The original application grew beyond a small team tool and became part of the daily support process for more than 500 agents over roughly four years.

02 / WHAT IT DOES

Support knowledge built around the job.

  • Separate technical and billing support workflows.
  • Structured troubleshooting and reference content.
  • Quick calculators and utilities for common agent tasks.
  • Notes and workflow information designed for fast call handling.
  • A searchable, centralized replacement for scattered process knowledge.

03 / TECHNOLOGY

Recreated with the original spirit intact.

The portfolio demo is a ground-up recreation rather than a copy of proprietary production code or data. It demonstrates the same type of internal support experience using a simple, durable web stack.

The live demo contains recreated workflows and non-proprietary sample content. No former employer data or customer information is included.

04 / WHY IT MATTERS

Build for the people doing the work.

Call Friend is an early example of a pattern that has followed me throughout my career: find a repetitive operational problem, understand how people actually work, and build a tool that makes the process faster and easier to support.
