About

Product Engineer, husband, and father of 2 amazing kids. I’m a builder — I like taking an idea all the way to a shipped product, across product thinking, software, and the systems around it, not just the code. My deepest roots are in mobile: Android, iOS, and Kotlin Multiplatform. Maintainer of ReduxKotlin.org.

In a previous life I was a full-time firefighter. Since 2010 I’ve been building mobile applications, starting with an emergency notification app for the fire service — and I’ve been shipping products ever since.

Experience

  • Meta — Product Engineer on Messaging and Calling, building at the scale of billions of users (5+ years).
  • AbleTo — Product Engineer on the Joyable mental-health app.
  • Ticketmaster — building mobile products for live events at scale.

Currently I’m a Product Engineer at Meta on Messaging and Calling.
