📄 Resume

I'm a software engineer with two decades of professional experience building web and mobile apps. 👨‍💻

My former home in Arizona was powered by solar energy– this is my experience owning a 17kW Tesla solar panel array and two Powerwall+ batteries 🔋

🐦 Backyard Bird ID

I turned my security cameras into bird listeners– BirdNET identifies every song and call in my backyard, 24/7, and posts them to a live site. 🎶

🎨 SmartKit.dev

I developed a cross-platform UI component library and design system– using React Native to render components across iOS, Android, and the Web. ⚛️

🦁 Matchimals.fun

I built an animal matching puzzle card game iPad app for kids– it's free to download, doesn't have ads, and the code that powers it is open source! 📲

✏️ Paper Trails

I made a land-grab game for kids– you're a sticker on graph paper, drawing loops to claim territory and cutting off rivals to steal their empire. 👑

🕳️ Hungry Hole

I built a hole game for kids– drag a hungry hole around a tiny world and swallow cones, cars, and eventually whole houses. Free, with no ads. 🏠
