I make software for phones, the web, and the gaps in between — products, sites, and tools I wanted for myself. If something should exist, I’d rather just build it.

These days that’s Jupiter, from Dubai. I work on the Android app, native, the backends around it, and the AI setup the team ships with. Before that I did Android at Airchat, theScore, 1Password, Ritual, and Ceridian, and Computer Science at Waterloo.

Lately, on my own time, I’ve been building the tools around how I actually work. Sideload is a Mac menu bar that builds and installs Android debug APKs from a checkout. Mission Control is an iPhone remote for a fleet of coding sessions on my Mac. linear-cli is a small Linear client I actually use. Same itch — if I want it, I make it.
