Apps, Past & Present

Over the years I’ve had the opportunity to work on dozens of iOS, tvOS and macOS apps. Some of them were for others; others were mine and mine alone.

In the former category, I was the sole developer behind Food & Wine Magazine’s first cocktail guide app in 2012, and in 2017 I was part of the small team at Podop that launched Steven Soderbergh’s Mosaic, an interactive film experience that The Daily Beast called “the most innovative TV series maybe ever”.

I also developed and launched several solo apps over the years including Dictapad (a transcription aid made obsolete by automated transcription) and Better Day (an Apple Watch complication I stopped using when I built my own watch instead).

Today none of these apps remain on the App Store, and I’ve mostly moved on from app development.
