SEEKING WORK - NYC, mostly remote preferred, but open to travel for larger projects, major meetings, etc.

I'm a senior iOS developer with experience as a product manager and startup founder.

Since 2010, I've built, launched, grown, and supported many dozens of complex native iPad and iPhone apps, and worked on mobile app projects with everyone from tiny startups to design shops to Fortune 500 companies to government agencies.

I have deep experience with Objective-C and Swift, as well as backend experience with LAMP (esp Laravel, WP, and others), Firebase, and Parse.

MOST importantly, I have real-world, personal experience in making sure that money spent = business results, not just reinventing the wheel with the latest developer-hyped obsessions (I love shiny toys too, but only when they support the business goals).

I focus on two things these days:

1. Long-term maintenance and support of mobile apps, both enterprise and consumer-facing. Ensuring everything stays up-to-date with OS changes, fixing bugs, adding new features, doing redesigns, and generally making sure that your investment in an app pays off in the long run. Discounts for multiple apps, agencies (who want to resell this to their clients), and non-profits. We cover Android and hybrid apps as well.

2. Building MVP mobile apps for startups. I help startups go from a great idea to having a polished app in the hands of their users as fast as possible. So if you have a broad concept and you need someone who understands the entire product development / startup funding / business growth lifecycle and how to get things done within those constraints, I'm an excellent fit.

I'd love the opportunity to work with you if things are a good fit!
