About
I’m a senior mobile application developer who’s spent the last decade+ building scalable apps for regulated enterprise, fintech, healthcare, and consumer wellness. I lead end-to-end: product scoping, front-end architecture, hybrid/native bridges, CI/CD, and cloud. My work spans U.S. federal-grade accessibility and security, banking features, and wellness experiences (including VisionOS explorations), all delivered with measurable performance and stability gains.

How I Work

- Secure by default: Secret management, least‑privilege IAM, encrypted storage, OWASP Mobile basics, and compliance guardrails for regulated work.

- Collaboration & docs: Async updates, ADRs, setup scripts, and onboarding docs; tight feedback loops with design and stakeholders.
