I finally got around to setting up this blog. I plan to write mostly short-form posts about my learnings on Swift and other iOS and mobile topics, as well as my journey towards becoming an indie developer.

My Background

I’m an Engineering Manager with over a decade and a half of iOS development experience. I can still remember writing apps for iPhone OS 3.0 when we finally got copy and paste support. Seems crazy to think core functionality like that wasn’t available in earlier versions.

What I’m Up To

When I’m not working as an EM, I’m usually balancing life between finding time to work on indie side-projects (or starting another one) and spending time with my young family.

I’m also a big fan of AI and think we’re just at the tip of a very big iceberg. I’m always exploring new ways to make myself more efficient so I can actually finish one of my side-projects!

Outside of Tech

On a personal level (not that you probably care), I live in the UK and love being outdoors in the countryside when it’s not raining—which does happen occasionally. I have a marine aquarium that’s another obsession of mine, and of course I’m building an OO gauge model railway.

Finally!

I can stand proud and proclaim that this blog is now live, so at least I can tick this off my endless list of things to finish.
