About

Decades of engineering experience, amplified by AI.

I’ve been creating apps since the Apple App Store opened and have delivered more than 35 applications for clients and my own company. Today I combine that experience with an AI-native workflow using Claude Code, Codex and Cursor.

These tools help me understand existing codebases, explore solutions, implement focused changes and verify work faster. They don’t replace engineering judgement—they remove routine friction so more time goes into architecture, product quality and the user experience.

My technical work spans native Swift and Objective-C for Apple platforms, Kotlin and Java for Android, plus C#, .NET, SQL Server and Azure for the services behind them.

AI-assisted development

Experienced judgement, accelerated by modern coding tools.

I use AI as an active engineering partner: exploring codebases, testing ideas, implementing focused changes and removing repetitive work while retaining human review and responsibility for every outcome.

Claude Code

For deep codebase exploration, considered implementation work, refactoring and maintaining context across larger engineering tasks.

OpenAI Codex

For agentic development workflows: turning defined goals into reviewed code changes, verification and clear delivery stages.

Cursor

For fast, in-editor iteration, targeted code assistance and keeping development momentum during day-to-day implementation.

The result: faster investigation and delivery, with architecture, security, testing and product decisions still guided by professional engineering judgement.

Services

Practical product development for real businesses.

iOS development

Native iPhone and iPad applications using Swift, Objective-C and Apple’s platform frameworks.

Android development

Native Android products using Kotlin and Java, shaped around the audience and business need.

Web, APIs and cloud

Supporting websites, APIs and back-end systems built with .NET, C#, SQL Server and Azure.

Selected work

Apps delivered across a wide range of sectors.

A selection of products I have helped design, build and release across public services, education, media, enterprise and independent projects.
