Welcome — and why this site exists

I’ve been building digital products for close to a decade — first as an iOS developer, then leading squads, and now as a solution architect for digital channels. The thread through all of it is the same: learn by building.

This site is two things. First, a place to show what I’ve worked on. Second, a place to write down the things I figure out along the way — the trade-offs you only see after you ship, the patterns that survive a re-platform, the decisions that age well (and the ones that don’t).

What you’ll find here

• Experience — the actual jobs, in order, with what I owned.
• Projects — case studies and side work, including my consultancy Itpixels.
• Blog — notes on architecture, mobile, web, and the messy middle.

If you’re hiring, building, or just want to compare notes, the inbox is open.
