About
I'm from Brooklyn, New York — a husband and dad, and for 7+ years an iOS developer and creative engineer at Adafruit Industries, where I grew from part-time fabricator to Senior iOS Developer and now lead a dev team. My focus is tools that make coding more accessible, especially with CircuitPython. Lately I'm deep into augmented reality, computational design, and computer graphics.
One of my proudest moments was being featured in Apple's Platforms State of the Union in 2020, alongside my daughter, then five weeks old.
