With 12+ years of experience, I build iOS apps that look and feel like they were designed by Apple themselves – elegant, fast, and intuitive. Using SwiftUI and the latest frameworks, I deliver production-ready apps with custom animations, accessibility, widgets, HealthKit, Core Data, CloudKit, and more, all while following Apple’s Human Interface Guidelines to create experiences users love.
Apple Watch Development
I create Apple Watch apps that extend the power of iOS to the wrist – fast, responsive, and designed for everyday impact. From glanceable complications and rich notifications to health tracking and seamless WatchConnectivity, I build experiences that maximize limited screen space while feeling natural, useful, and indispensable.
Machine Learning & AI Integration
I integrate machine learning and AI into iOS apps to make them smarter, faster, and more personal. From facial recognition and predictive analytics to custom Core ML models and on-device inference, I design intelligent features that respect privacy while delivering adaptive, engaging user experiences.

Mike joined us as a junior developer fresh out of Stanford, and I immediately saw something special in him. His passion for iOS development was infectious, and he had this incredible ability to absorb new technologies like a sponge. Even as a junior, he was always the first to volunteer for challenging projects and would often stay late to perfect his code. His attention to detail and commitment to writing clean, maintainable Swift code set him apart from other junior developers. Mike's growth during his time with us was remarkable - he went from writing basic UI components to architecting entire app features. I have no doubt he'll continue to excel in his career. Mike was an exceptional addition to our iOS development team at Apple. His deep understanding of Swift and iOS frameworks, combined with his eye for design, made him invaluable in creating apps that not only functioned flawlessly but also felt native to our ecosystem. He had this unique ability to bridge the gap between technical implementation and user experience - something that's crucial when developing for Apple's platform. Mike's work on health and wellness apps showed his commitment to creating technology that genuinely improves people's lives. His code was always production-ready, his documentation was impeccable, and he was a fantastic mentor to junior developers on our team. Apple's standards are incredibly high, and Mike consistently exceeded them. Working with Mike at Uber was an absolute pleasure. As a product manager, I've worked with many developers, but Mike stood out for his ability to understand the business impact of technical decisions. He wasn't just a coder - he was a true partner in product development. When we were building features that required integration with multiple services and APIs, Mike was always the one who could see the bigger picture and suggest elegant solutions that worked for both users and the business. His work on sustainability features showed his personal values aligning with our company goals, and he brought that same passion to every project. Mike's communication skills made complex technical concepts accessible to non-technical stakeholders, which is invaluable in a fast-paced environment like Uber. Mike has been instrumental in pushing the boundaries of what's possible in audio technology at Spotify. As his engineering director, I've watched him grow from a senior developer into a true technical leader who inspires his team to think bigger and bolder. His work on spatial audio and immersive experiences has opened up entirely new possibilities for how people interact with music. What impresses me most about Mike is his ability to balance innovation with pragmatism - he can dream up cutting-edge features while ensuring they're built on solid, maintainable foundations. His leadership style is collaborative and inclusive, always making sure everyone on the team feels heard and valued. Mike doesn't just write great code; he builds great teams and great products. Mike is the kind of developer you want on your team - not just because he's technically brilliant, but because he makes everyone around him better. I've been working alongside him at Spotify for the past year, and his knowledge of SwiftUI and iOS development is absolutely top-notch. But what really sets Mike apart is his willingness to share that knowledge. He's always the first person I go to when I'm stuck on a complex audio processing problem, and he never makes me feel like I'm bothering him. His code reviews are thorough and educational, and he has this amazing ability to explain complex concepts in simple terms. Plus, his passion for animal welfare and sustainability shows he's not just a great developer, but a great human being too. Mike has definitely made me a better developer.
