Experience

My current role is hands-on architecture for myColorado across iOS and Android. I set direction for a three-developer mobile team, mentor the developers beside me, and stay close enough to implementation to know where the design gets real. The work includes mDL and verifiable credentials, crash-free release gates, Kotlin Multiplatform, SwiftUI and Compose migration, CI/CD and release tooling, and the occasional backend-adjacent task when mobile depends on it.

Worked on both native apps for a delivery scheduling, route optimization, and payments platform. The job was pragmatic mobile engineering: migrate Objective-C to Swift and Java to Kotlin while still shipping, handle App Store and Play Store submissions, localize for international markets including right-to-left layouts, and learn enough C#/.NET to unblock mobile features when backend changes were part of the work.

Joined a 10-engineer iOS team on the prepaid product line of My Verizon. I worked through product-facing changes like the UI rebrand, dashboard, login, and onboarding, plus platform maintenance like Swift 3 to Swift 4, Face ID, iPhone X layouts, and NSOperation cleanup. That job changed how I think about shared conventions and review habits on a large app.

The early years were wider than mobile: JavaFX desktop work in D.C.; SQL queries, stored procedures, and database objects in Lebanon; BlackBerry and Android apps with REST/SOAP integration. That background still helps when a mobile issue crosses into data, APIs, or an unfamiliar backend.
