Current Position: iOS Developer @ theScore - eSports
I am responsible for building and maintaining the theScore's eSports app on a daily basis. We program primarily in Swift, and occasionally Objective-C to support legacy components. I have worked on UI, data model, and networking components in the app. I also have extensive knowledge on several eSports we cover, allowing me to contribute in product conversations. Despite my love for the app, I enjoy working with our scrum development team the most.

Technical titles and experience aside, I would describe myself as a learner and visualizer. With technology evolving faster than we can think, it's more important to be a quick learner who can apply existing knowledge to any new situation.
You have know what you don't know before you can start to understand a problem in its entirety. My first step is to break the problem down into smaller pieces and visualize how we could solve each one to reach the final solution.
