I transitioned into software development through the Apple Developer Academy, where I shipped two live iOS apps in under a year. I build accessible, polished experiences with SwiftUI, clean architecture, and strong UX thinking.

What People Say

George walked into the Academy curious but reserved, quietly taking it all in. Since then, I’ve watched him come into his own letting that curiosity fuel real growth. Today, he’s not just a strong coder, he’s a go to resource for others. I’m proud of what he’s accomplished in seven months, and even more excited to see how far he’ll go.

Ron Marshall

Marketing Mentor Apple Developer Academy MSU

George showed a deep commitment to both the vision and the details, consistently stepping up to solve problems and strengthen the foundation of our MVP. I cannot express how his contributions helped turn abstract concepts into something tangible and real.

Ashlee Cunningham

Founder, We Change Community Consulting

I’ve had the chance to work with George in the Apple Developer Academy and on projects outside of it, and he consistently brings real value to a team. He’s dependable, collaborative, and always works to make the final product stronger. He’s someone I’d confidently recommend.

What I Offer Teams

I combine product thinking, clean implementation, and accessibility-first decisions to ship work that is easy to use and easy to maintain.

Accessibility from day one

I design and build with VoiceOver, Dynamic Type, contrast, and usability in mind from the first iteration.

End-to-end product ownership

I can move from concept to shipped experience, including user flows, architecture, implementation, and iteration.

Cross-functional communication

I translate technical decisions into clear product tradeoffs that stakeholders and teammates can align on quickly.
