About
Built by a developer,
not an agency.
I'm Scott Sanzenbacher, a software developer based in Northwest Ohio. I started Black Mutt Media in 2007 after years of building software for companies across manufacturing, education, government, and market research.
When you work with me, you're working directly with the person writing your code — no account managers, no handoffs, no layers between you and the work. I specialize in React, React Native, Node.js, and API integrations, and I bring the kind of context and ownership that only comes from decades of hands-on development.
I've helped businesses automate processes, launch e-commerce platforms, build CRMs, integrate third-party services, and ship mobile apps. If you have a project that needs someone who can get things done without the overhead, let's talk.
How I Work
- Direct communication — no middlemen
- Clear, fixed-scope estimates before work begins
- Regular progress updates and demos
- Clean, maintainable code with documentation
