Rocky Bunker / St. George, Utah
Builder, product partner, and useful skeptic.
I care about the moment a sharp idea has to survive contact with a customer, a team, a deadline, and the truth.
I work between design, full-stack products, merchant services, and AI implementation, and the operating questions underneath all of them.
ISR Studio is the connective tissue. It is where client work, ventures, resources, experiments, and collaborators can be seen in one honest frame. It began in 2022 as an independent UX/UI, branding, and web studio.
Haestus.dev, the development team I co-founded with James Watling, builds the systems, automation, and software. I work with companies across engineering, equipment rental, marketing, retirement planning, title and escrow, and payments. I keep learning notes because the clearest way to understand a system is often to explain how to build one.
I do not believe every company needs more software. I do believe the right interface, workflow, or tool can return time and clarity to the people closest to the work.
The partnership
