About me

Sadrac Santacruz.

Custom systems, websites, and marketing for local businesses · Bilingual · Coachella Valley

I'm Sadrac. I build the three things a small local business actually needs to grow: the internal systems that run the operation, the website that brings people in, and the marketing that keeps the phone ringing. One operator, one stack, in your voice.

What I'm doing now

UC San Diego alumni (Data Science). Working as a one-person studio covering all three pillars for local clients: custom systems (PostgreSQL, Next.js, automation), websites (bilingual, fast, owned by you), and the marketing that connects them. On the side I run Santacruz Premium Bartending, and I'm about to start publishing video content from inside the business.

Real systems. Real organizations.

I've built these before. For real companies.

Before starting Santacruz Systems, I built the systems that real teams run on every day. Not class projects. Real people, real work.

For your business, I build it around how you actually work. Not the other way around.

What I actually do.

Three pillars, one person. I usually start you with one, then add the others once you see how it pays off having everything connected through me.

Custom systems

Internal tools, databases, dashboards, automation. The back office that keeps your operation running without paper and texts.

Websites

Bilingual marketing sites and web apps. Fast, accessible, search-friendly, and built so you own every line of it.

Marketing

Local SEO, Google Business, content, and campaigns in English and Spanish. Tied directly into the systems and the site, so leads land where they belong.

Four hats, one operator.

Software is my craft. Hospitality is my business. Photo and video are how I tell the story.

Systems Designer

Internal tools & data systems

I design and build databases, dashboards, and automation for real teams. PostgreSQL, Next.js, Retool, APIs, and clean workflows people actually use.

Editorial & event photography

On the side, I shoot portraits, events, and the kind of behind-the-scenes work that turns into content for the bartending business and beyond.

Coming soon: videos

I'm building a video series in the bartending space. Technique, the craft, the business side, and what running a hospitality brand looks like from the inside.

How I work.

01

Systems thinking

Map the whole workflow before writing a line of code. The schema is the product.

02

Data discipline

Constraints, enums, indexes, and audit trails. Shaky data poisons everything downstream.

03

Practical UX

Simple screens that guide the user and reduce mistakes. Boring beats clever.

04

Shipping mindset

Small milestones, tight feedback loops, clean handoff docs. The tool still works in 3 months.

The side venture

Santacruz Premium Bartending.

Private bartending for weddings, private events, and special occasions in the Palm Springs and Coachella Valley area. Custom menus, full setup, professional service. I built the site, and I pour the drinks.
