Welcome

I like writing software. Not just coding, but making things. Making them work. Breaking them and putting them back together.

I started coding in ‘95 and have been paid to do it since ‘99. I rode the dot-com wave, explored full-stack development with .NET, Java, and Ruby, then settled into iOS development in 2009. I haven’t looked back.

My guiding principles in software:

  • The best code is no code
  • Modules should be deep, not wide
  • Prefer duplication over the wrong abstraction
  • Simplicity enables reliability (and AI-bility)

Also, I have a self‑diagnosed case of Conditional Statement Aversion.

In my off-hours, I’m hacking bikes, walking dogs, or getting lost in sci-fi.
