About Me

I am a skilled software developer with expertise in programming and a passion for iOS development. I have created numerous high-performance iOS mobile apps using functional reactive programming and MVVM. When not involved in programming, I specialize in most C languages including C++, C#, and Objective C. I have worked in both the finance and medical software industries and typically follow all the cutting-edge technologies that will shape the world in the the coming years (microservices, functional programming, blockchain, and machine learning). As a client-focused developer, I ensure my client’s apps are clean, fully responsive, bug-free, and secure.

Gocus is a goal oriented task management system for life insurance agents. Utilized MVVM architecture using reactive bindings on UI; all data manipulations were done in separate viewModels, the objective being the total separation of business layers from the complexity of the UI; asynchronous calls were abstracted using Rx and launched on different queues to avoid callbacks, reduce complexity while ensuring a responsive UI; - custom data cache designed to improve networking performance. A significant amount of the UI components were custom built in code using Core Graphics directives (including vector images as UIBezierPaths), to avoid the need for adding resources for every screen size. The interface scales perfectly on any type of screen.
