Relevant Experience

Professional Summary

I have been developing on iOS for approximately 6 years. I have vast experience in all aspects of the development process. From the design, to the code, I can complete an entire application without the need for another entity. I have over 10 years of experience in Photoshop and can create iOS-specific assets on the fly, as I need them. When learning new Apple technologies, the Apple documents are where I turn for answers and implementation guidelines. I pride myself on knowing all aspects of coding in Objective-C, as well as the new Swift Programming Language and iOS8/9-specific technologies. My experience in Apple frameworks is not limited by UIKit or Foundation, but expands to CoreData, CoreGraphics, CoreLocation and my own custom frameworks.
