Renovate apps without stopping delivery
At Jumbo, I helped create a SwiftUI-first path over legacy UIKit, LayoutKit, and Objective-C foundations using MVVM, repositories, and provider boundaries.

I build apps.
I work close to the product while staying deep in the code: shaping interaction, shipping features, and improving the thing after it is live. Across 14+ years that has meant university, lottery, logistics, retail, maps, Firebase, Flutter, Swift, SwiftUI, and large production codebases.

How I work
Useful where product detail meets code.
I am usually at my best when the work needs product judgement, platform knowledge, team patterns, and careful delivery at the same time.
Turn interface work into systems
At QUT, I led Material 3 restyling across colour, typography, spacing, components, light mode, dark mode, and tablet support.
Use independent products as a lab
Pin Masters, Death-o-nome, and Local Golf are where I pressure-test new technology in real products: app UX, maps, Firebase, Flutter web, game feel, hosting, analytics, and the practical tradeoffs that only show up once something is live.
Live work
Products you can open.
Pin Masters, Death-o-nome, and Local Golf are live products with real screenshots, public links, and app previews.
Pin Masters
Golf GPS and course operations platform built around yardages, routing, pace insight, alerts, and course mapping.

Death-o-nome
A stylised Flutter metronome with a precise timing engine, animated character, custom audio, and macabre visual identity.

Local Golf
A playable golf game on real course maps, with shot mechanics, daily challenges, leaderboards, shot maps, and 3D putting.

The code stack.
I keep languages visible because hiring needs evidence, but the point is what those tools were used for: production apps, code base modernisation, migrations, teams, and product decisions.

Available for the right senior app work
Need someone who can shape the app and still ship the details?
I am strongest where product decisions and engineering judgement need to meet: Flutter, Swift, migration strategy, team patterns, and the small details users can feel.
