Profile
I am a very determined and passionate developer,
particularly for UI and intuitive design. Writing
applications with slick animations and transitions is one of my favourite parts of development. I believe strongly in creating effective road maps as far in advance as possible prior to development. I like to be involved from early meetings through to app submission. My easily
approachable nature allows me to have direct contact with clients, thus gaining an understanding of both their requirements as well as the load developers may be up against. As most developers I enjoy learning new
technologies and trying to push the boundaries of each device. I work well under pressure and manage my own time efficiently. Please see website for detailed descriptions of each project

Standard Jira set up with Trello for more light weight lists. General communication via Slack Lots of custom
transitions and animations from UIKit, CALayer and SpriteKit. All apps were written in Swift. Plenty of protocol orientated programming. One of the key parts of this application would not have existed had I not suggested it to the company, product progression is one of my strong Contact & Links

love for music and tinkering with toys led to custom lights displays, speaker design and music
composition.
