I build iOS hearing aid apps, subscriptions, authentication, and accessible SwiftUI experiences.

At LXE Hearing, I develop and maintain the live Lexie and Eargo hearing aid companion apps for the US market, supporting Bluetooth-connected medical hardware across MVVM and VIPER architectures.

I've launched in-app coupon and subscription systems, integrated hearing test assessments, and implemented secure AppAuth and Keycloak authentication with OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect. I also modularised the codebase, built reusable SwiftUI components, and led feature-flagged redesigns that improved accessibility, performance, and design consistency.

Previously, I delivered policy-management and customer-care features for Standard Bank Insurance and built an internal claims and bookings system in Angular, .NET, and SQL that remains in daily use.
