United States

Message

At Broker Public Portal, I lead mobile engineering for Cribio, a consumer property-search app built with React Native, Expo, and native iOS integrations. I built map-first discovery with Mapbox alongside property search and detail flows, and own production delivery across iOS and Android.

At Backflip, I was the first hire and served as interim head of engineering and sole developer during the foundational stage, spearheading a computer vision and AI feature for instant property analysis. Earlier, I architected the McDonald’s iPhone app at Method Inc. and modernized a home-fitness iPhone app with over 700k users at Presence Product Group.
