I build apps that
feel native.

Fintech that moves real money, two-sided marketplaces, consumer apps. I build the part people actually touch, and I care that it feels finished before anyone opens it.

About

Independent since 2026

I left an electrical engineering degree at 21. Not on impulse. I'd spent a year watching people build a living out of shipping things on the internet, and once I could point at someone already doing it, the argument at home got a lot easier.

I freelanced alone for a while, then co-founded a studio with two college friends and ran it for three years. Mostly other people's products: regulated banking apps moving real money, marketplaces where both sides have to agree in real time, consumer apps where the first few seconds decide whether anyone comes back. I went independent in 2026.

The most useful thing I know came from a product that died. Technically sound, real users on both stores, wound down anyway because nobody had solved distribution. It's the reason I think about launch now, not just shipping.

So I'm doing it differently. Writing Swift by hand, learning native iOS in public, posting the work before it's polished rather than after. I'd rather make one decisive move than three quick ones.

Got something to build?

Open for contract work and collaborations, mobile especially. A DM on X is the fastest way to reach me.
