ABOUT ME
iOS Teaching Assistant at Coding Bootcamp
iOS Teaching Assistant at Coding Bootcamp
I've worked at a variety of startups in the past 5 years building iOS apps for medical purposes to marketing campaign apps for agencies such as Adidas and Lululemon. Working with designers, building user interface/experience and watching it come to life in an app is my favourite aspect of app development.
I'm currently working as a teaching assistant at a coding bootcamp so hopefully I can provide some help to you remotely as well.

I have worked for three different startups in the past 5 years helping them build iOS apps. Many of the apps involved integration with third party services, push notifications, data persistence, auto layout and much more. Every iOS app has a different user interface and I have worked with lots of different designs. It really is one of my favourite things to work on.

The Swift language I learnt myself as I begun building my own personal iOS projects. Since I came from an Objective-C background, converting what I know to Swift then doing some research on how to improve it with Swift makes the learning curve very quick.

I use Git because it makes the most sense when maintaining a project. All my projects required source code management when creating new features or going back to a previous working copy.
