My legal middle name is Danger. Not a nickname.
Yes, there's a story — but that one's for the interview.
I've been writing software professionally for 29 years — more
than 15 of those on iOS. I've led the mobile team on a financial app
trusted by 100,000+ people daily, built a classified app distribution
platform for the U.S. Intelligence Community, and shipped a situational
awareness tool used by military and first responders in environments
with zero margin for downtime. When Wired covered our work, it wasn't
because it was flashy. It was because it mattered.
I think about the edge cases before I think about the happy path.
That's what years in financial compliance and intelligence work will
do — you learn that "it works on my machine" isn't a shipping standard.
I write tests first, I sweat accessibility, and I architect for the
thing that hasn't gone wrong yet.
I've mentored junior devs, driven architectural decisions on large
teams, and I'm the person people pull into the room when something's
broken and nobody knows why. I lead by making the people around me
better — and by shipping the things that scare other teams.
Outside of work, I'm building AR experiments, training ML models,
wiring up Raspberry Pis, and 3D printing things that probably don't
need to exist. I don't stop building when I clock out. I just build
weirder things.
