Development

I’m a SwiftUI hobbyist that focuses on my latest app, Please Don’t Rain. It tracks whether rain (or snow) will affect a day that’s important to you. When I had a theme park day coming up I really only cared about the weather for that day and looking it up over and over again was annoying. Hence an app idea was born! I wanted to learn how to use WeatherKit and this was the perfect opportunity. The app has changed so much since I initially launched it in 2023 and my accessibility support got the app nominated for a 2023 Golden Apple award by AppleVis (which I am very proud of).

Speaking

I’m giving my first talk, Don’t Let Time Zones Ruin Your Day (Days?), at Swift Leeds in October 2025. Learn from the mistakes I made when dealing with time zones when developing Please Don’t Rain.

iOS Dev Happy Hour

I’m one of the organizers of iOS Dev Happy Hour, a monthly online meetup that has been running continuously since 2020. We also hold in person events around Cupertino during WWDC. Feel free to join us and meet some great people if you haven’t done so already. We welcome people of all skill levels. If you’re an introvert on the fence about attending I can relate and would be happy to give insight into the event.

We also have a YouTube Channel!

Here’s an example of some of the expert speakers we’ve have. (We also put the spotlight on new devs also.)

CommunityKit

I’m one of the organizers of CommunityKit, a new in-person, three day, FREE event we held in Cupertino during WWDC25. We wanted to help bring the community together through events such as WWDC watch parties, meetups, and our crown jewel - the Indie App Fair. The Indie App Fair let indie developers show their products to the community. And we’re doing it all again in 2026!
