πŸ”οΈ Featured Work: Tierra Libre Run

tierralibrerun β€” the platform behind Tierra Libre Run, a nonprofit I founded to make trail running accessible to runners of color.

We sponsor athletes, fund race entries, match runners with mentors, and partner with 11 race organizations. I needed a platform that could handle all of it, so I built one.

The tech: Next.js 16 (App Router, server actions), TypeScript (99.2% of the codebase), PlanetScale + Drizzle ORM, Clerk auth, Sanity CMS, Resend transactional email. Deployed on Vercel.

What it does:

  • πŸ“ Race funding applications with multi-step review workflows
  • 🀝 Mentor matching and onboarding
  • πŸ“… Event RSVPs and athlete dashboards
  • βš™οΈ Admin surfaces for fund management, partner coordination, and email actions
  • ✍️ Content system powered by Sanity for blog, stories, and race profiles

The whole thing is open source. One contributor (me), built from scratch, running in production.
