Profile
I am an iOS & Mobile Developer in the Los Angeles Area hoping to make a difference in the mobile tech industry. I got a Nintendo Gameboy Advance when I was about 13. This was the beginning of my fascination with mobile technology. This device was the most interesting and exciting thing I had ever owned. As I began to play with my Gameboy more, I wanted to know how it worked. As a child of the 90's, I naturally turned to the internet to provide me with knowledge. Thanks to the internet, I was making my own games and applications for my Gameboy written in C++. They were simple and rudimentary, but they were mine. Being able to control and apply the power of mobile devices has been an obsession ever since.
