Portfolio
Outside of my job, I have worked on a number of projects to expand my skills and scratch the itch to build and write about cool things.
Breathify
I’ve been getting into breathwork over the last year, and I didn’t love how much of a production the most popular breathwork apps are. I made a simple and minimal breathwork coach for iOS. It has calming animations and is super easy to use. This was my first time working with in-app subscriptions!
Deep Focus Timer
Deep work changed my life. I’m also loud about how my favorite productivity tool is a 25 minute timer. So I built a cool tool that helps you stay focused and reflect on how you spent your time. I built it with Typescript, React, Next.js, Supabase, and Stripe. Check out my Deep Work Timer on the web.
Carolina Crickets
I built this super simple white noise app that uses a live activity. You can download Carolina Crickets on the App Store.
Time Vision
I built an iPhone app for tracking time, specifically for those who suffer from “time blindness”. It’s a simple app, but the live activity on the homescreen makes staying on-task easier. Check it out on the app store.
Simple Meds
I built a React Native mobile application that lets users track their medications. I built this because I was unhappy with the privacy and quality of existing medicine apps, and I use it almost every day. Check it out on the app store.
Software Engineering Trainings
I built a Ruby on Rails application that lists user-submitted “Resources” for growing a software engineering career. It ships with an admin panel to allow privileged users to approve resources before they’re listed. I also shipped this to my own VPS using Docker and Kamal, which was super fun.
Distractly
A mac menu bar application to quickly take notes when distracted during focused work. Published to the mac app store.
Rails Work
Created a SaaS app using Ruby on Rails that job seekers to browse job postings and recruiters to post jobs.. Using to hone skills in Rails, Git, Heroku, and Stripe Integrations.
Medical Device Inventory App
Designed and implemented a native iOS inventory management application for a medical startup. Written with Swift and used API calls to interface with the web application counterpart.
Github Followers
Created an iOS app that interfaces with the Github API to browse users and their followers. Created while taking Sean Allen’s Take Home Project Course. Used Swift and UIKit with Programmatic UI, made network calls using URLSession, persisted data using UserDefaults, and explored CollectionViews with DiffableDataSource. You can see my code on Github here.
MockMyWords
Seen that meme of everyone’s favorite cartoon character mOcKing wItH soMe aLteRnaTinG teXt? I turned it into an Android and an iOS App.
What Are The Odds
Simple game where one person dares another to do a ridiculous task. The app adds to the fun by truly randomly generating the numbers, eliminating cheating. Created with Swift and UIKit.
Study Buddy
A fun iOS app for tracking study habits and reducing distractions. Created for a client, working to meet project requirements and deadlines. Utilized Core Data and monetized using AdMob. Published on the App Store in October 2019.
