About

Engineer, modernizer, builder

I build production iOS apps that real people depend on every day — currently the BMW Motorrad Connected App, a navigation and connectivity platform used by hundreds of thousands of riders worldwide.

My edge is taking large, complex, often legacy systems and making them faster to evolve: migrating Objective-C to Swift, lifting test coverage, and turning flaky release processes into reliable CI/CD. I've worked across automotive, fintech, and IoT.

Beyond mobile, I work hands-on with AWS backends and build AI agents and RAG systems. This very site is an example — its concierge chatbot runs on AWS serverless and answers questions grounded in my real experience.
