ABOUT ME
Native iOS Developer
Native iOS Developer

I’m a senior iOS engineer and founder with 14+ years of experience building mobile apps, developer tools, games, and software platforms. My background spans Swift, Objective-C, UIKit, SwiftUI, architecture, testing, debugging, product strategy, and technical leadership.

I help developers understand not just how to write code, but how real software systems are planned, structured, shipped, maintained, and improved over time. I’m especially useful for iOS development, software engineering fundamentals, architecture, code review, debugging, and helping people make sense of unfamiliar codebases.

I keep sessions practical, direct, and beginner-friendly. I’m happy to explain concepts from first principles, review code, help plan a learning path, or work through a specific technical problem.

David is AMAZING. Worked well with my schedule and completed to job on time with all of the deliverables. Do not think twice about not working with him. Very patient and was able to solve my issue with StoreKit and explained to code. Thank you David!

David is extremely knowledgeable with Swift programming, yet at the same time very personable and easy to talk to. This combination is hard to come by. Highly recommend working with him. Sometimes my brain hurts afterwards tho.

David was a great mentor! He was very knowledgeable about the topic I was looking to learn more about (dependency injection + unit testing) and patiently walked me through an implementation of it. His enthusiasm was a bonus :).
