Senior iOS engineer who ships the whole system.
Six years shipping production iOS across eight industries -- SwiftUI, TCA, AI integration, and the CI/CD to keep it all running. No handoffs, no half-builds. You get one engineer who owns the whole stack and stays until it ships.

Product-minded. Consumer-focused. Systems-driven.
Product-Minded
I start with the user's problem, not the tech stack. Architecture decisions flow from what the product needs to do.
Consumer-Focused
I've shipped apps that real people download and use daily. That shapes how I think about performance, UX, and reliability.
Systems-Driven
I don't just build features -- I build the infrastructure underneath them. CI/CD, tooling, AI pipelines, the boring stuff that makes everything else work.
I'm the engineer you bring in when the product matters. Not to pad a team -- to move the needle. I've shipped iOS apps, built full-stack web platforms, designed AI inference pipelines, and wired up the CI/CD and monitoring to keep it all running. Whatever the product needs, I go there.
What makes me different from most contractors: I ship my own products too. Not side projects -- real systems I use and maintain daily. That founder perspective changes how I work on your project. I care about the user experience, the edge cases, the stuff that breaks at 2am.
I'm direct, I over-communicate, and I don't disappear. You'll get async updates, clean PRs, and honest timelines. If I think the approach is wrong, I'll say so -- respectfully, but clearly.
