About
A solo studio with full-stack range.
Orange Brick Studio is founded and run by Mitch Embry — an engineer and creator focused on building reliable software and polished media.
I build digital products end-to-end apps, APIs, dashboards, and the creative media that brings them to life. My background includes shipping real systems in research and operational environments where reliability, clarity, and privacy matter.
Orange Brick Studio exists for teams who want high-quality output without the overhead of a large agency. I work hands-on, communicate clearly, and deliver maintainable work that’s ready to grow.
