I'm back! I'm mostly looking for freelance projects for mobile or server-side development, but I'm open to a really amazing job opportunity.
I have long experience in the tech industry, and specialize in hitting the ground running. If you have a new project, or a project in trouble, I can get it moving in the right direction, or even code, QA, and deliver the whole thing myself.
I spent the last year or so working as the CTO of RedRover, a venture-backed startup that created a mobile, location-based, social network for parents. Before that I was building Facebook apps, iPhone business apps, iPad games, iPhone infrastructure, consulting on user behavior, and project managing video apps.
