Swift / Xcode

Swift is currently my favorite language. I have used it to develop apps for both iOS and macOS and am interested in any Swift related projects.

Multiplatform Apps

Experienced with creating multiplatform frontend apps (Android, iOS, Desktop) using Kotlin Compose Multiplatform

Audio

I am an experienced recording and mix engineer who is interested in audio related programming projects. I am familiar with DSP and techniques to make the audio in your app or game sound its best.

Portfolio

I have worked on a wide range of projects. Some of my favorites:

Lava Jam: A music instrument (and game) designed and developed by me. Provides an expressive, multi-touch, keyboard for playing melodies along with background loops.

PhonemeKey: A unique keyboard for iOS in which you type sounds (phonemes) instead of letters and the keyboard outputs english words. Useful for people who are learning english or have trouble with spelling.

Flower: Tempo synced algorithmic art. Written in Java. The top portion is essentially a Spirograph where I rotate a bunch of shapes around a central point. As time progresses various parameters change and oscillate with the beat. The "stem" portion is a collection of inverse kinematic chains where each tip seeks out a random point.

Nancy's Fractal: Interactive fractal explorer. Written in Java using Processing.org drawing library.

Kaliedica Light Instrument: Check out Fishrock Studio's software for real time algorithmic art and mandalas for live performances. I helped prototype an updated version of the application.
