What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build fast, accessible iOS search and discovery experiences, combining native UI engineering, design systems, client-side performance, and product experimentation at meaningful scale.

I've built unified iOS search experiences at TechCorp for 15M+ monthly active users, improving task completion by 14% and reducing perceived autocomplete latency by 42%.

I architect SwiftUI and Combine interfaces, client-side search, and modular Server-Driven UI card frameworks that let UX teams deploy rich discovery experiences without app updates. I also deliver WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility through VoiceOver, Dynamic Type, and high-contrast design tokens.

Previously, I built design-system components, 120 FPS search feeds, and CoreData/SQLite caching at AppWorks Interactive, and delivered gesture-driven filters and visual barcode and QR search at Mobility Solutions Inc.
