What I bring

Mobile depth. Full-stack range.

For more than 14 years, I’ve built large-scale consumer applications across retail, logistics, banking, healthcare, insurance, and utilities.

I specialize in modernizing complex iOS codebases, shaping modular architecture, and leading teams through high-quality delivery. Today, I’m also building local AI workflows with LM Studio and Ollama, tool-calling agents, Dockerized services, and product-quality interfaces across web and iOS.
