What I'm looking for

I’m looking for contract opportunities.

At Lilly Seay & Co, I design and develop native iOS and Android apps for startups, including apps with IoT hardware and AI integrations. I also help startups create App Store campaigns, in-app events, and nomination pitches.

I built Hearing Buddy, an iOS app that gives Deaf and hard-of-hearing people on-device live captions. It became an Apple Design Award finalist in Inclusivity and was featured on the App Store eight times in 2026.

On a contract project for Shotsy, I developed the Android app, managed releases with 70,000 users and a small engineering team, and handled social media marketing. I’ve also grown my own social media accounts to over 115,000 followers and completed more than 30 brand collaborations.

At Hyster-Yale, I hired 20 engineers and designed a six-month technical training program covering automotive technologies and forklift electrical systems. I’m an Apple Entrepreneur Camp alum and a RevenueCat Shipaton Peace Prize second-place winner.
