I am a developer for macOS/iOS/watchOS/VisionOS with a passion for delivering polished software using Swift, SwiftUI, and Objective-C. I’ve spent my career on the Apple ecosystem, from hands-on work in Apple’s testing automation infrastructure to building AR experiences for Sports Illustrated, Ready Player One, Cosmopolitan, and beyond. I love pushing the boundaries of AR and robotics, mentoring others, and collaborating with cross‑functional teams to ship reliable, delightful products. Outside of code, I enjoy robotics and maker culture, leading projects like my R.O.B. droid and sharing the excitement of building with the Bay Area Maker Faire community. I’m a family man with seven kids and a wonderful wife who support and inspire my technology journey.
