moonshinerXwerks LLC is an independent app studio that builds original products from scratch — no clients, no contracts, just ideas we believe in, built the way we think they should be built.
moonshinerXwerks was founded with a straightforward premise: build useful apps for real people, own every pixel, and never cut corners on privacy. Every product in our portfolio started as a personal itch — a problem we encountered, a tool we wished existed, or an idea we couldn't shake.
We're based in Bend, Oregon — a place where people actually go outside, fish real rivers, and meet friends for happy hour. Our apps reflect that. They're built for people who do things, not just scroll through things.

Founder & Builder — moonshinerXwerks LLC
John is a senior program manager with over 20 years of experience leading enterprise programs across PMO design, process optimization, commercial excellence, and global customer implementation. He spent a decade at Expedia's Egencia division, progressing from reporting and analytics through global implementation management to program leadership — overseeing Fortune 500 client delivery, consolidating regional teams into a unified global PMO, and earning a President's Club Award for onboarding $195M+ in annual new business revenue.
His career spans enterprise transformation and product-driven delivery at every scale: directing cloud migrations and SaaS platform rollouts, leading product development initiatives to improve SaaS usability and drive adoption, spearheading internal commercialization efforts that aligned product capabilities with go-to-market strategy, and managing Salesforce CRM integrations and commercial excellence programs across multiple organizations.
moonshinerXwerks is where all of that converges — an independent software studio applying 20+ years of enterprise discipline to consumer product development. Every app is taken from concept through release with full ownership of product strategy, feature delivery, privacy architecture, and commercial model. The full product lifecycle is managed using agile delivery, structured change analysis, and AI-enabled tooling — while also owning all supporting operations including legal compliance, hosting infrastructure, and CI/CD pipelines.
Based in Bend, Oregon. Usually found on a river when not managing the next product through development and delivery.
Your data is yours. Our apps default to on-device storage, never sell data, and only transmit information when you explicitly opt in. No ads, no tracking SDKs, no exceptions.
Every app starts with a real need — not a market opportunity deck. If it doesn't solve a problem we've personally felt, we don't build it.
No outsourcing, no templates. Every line of code, every design decision, every user flow is built in-house with intention and care from concept to App Store.
Whether it's about one of our apps, a partnership idea, or just to say hello.
