I am a senior iOS engineer with 8+ years building and scaling apps across streaming media, medical imaging, and local services. I specialize in shipping reliable, user-facing features from legacy codebases while improving performance and observability.

At Tubi I contributed to one of North America’s largest AVOD platforms, delivering GDPR compliance, multi-account support, and disaster-mode reliability for the Super Bowl 2025 live event. I drove experimentation and A/B testing to improve conversion and configured Datadog monitoring for quick incident detection.

In medical imaging, I delivered the first shipping AI-assisted pathology platform and implemented a high-performance tiled image loader to stream extremely large slide images, then refactored modules to improve maintainability and reuse. I also led platform maintenance and prototyped concurrent, auditable annotation services.

I value product-driven, data-driven teams that emphasize ownership, transparency, and excellent user experiences. I bring strengths in performance optimization, testing, CI, and cross-timezone collaboration to help teams deliver resilient, measurable mobile products.
