About

Mobile first.
Full stack always.

I'm a mobile developer who cares about the details โ€” the spring of an animation, the weight of a haptic, the milliseconds between tap and response. I build native apps with Swift and Kotlin, and cross-platform products with React Native when it's the right call.

What sets my work apart: I don't stop at the client. I design and run the backend services behind my apps โ€” REST & GraphQL APIs, real-time streaming infrastructure, databases, and cloud deployments. One engineer, the whole product.
