Relevant Experience
Independent Software Engineer
2025 – PresentFigma · React Native · Reanimated · Skia · Expo · Supabase · Mapbox · SwiftUI (watchOS) · LiveKit
- Designed the "Ethereal Glass" UI/UX and animation system in Figma (color system, typography, glassmorphism tokens, 8 category-specific glow colors, 6-phase prayer connection choreography), then translated the wireframes and prototypes into a production React web app before pivoting to React Native based on design-fidelity requirements
- Authored a 470-line animation preservation spec mapping every Framer Motion interaction to Reanimated and Skia equivalents; iterated on the front-end implementation through a dedicated animation lab (prayerConnections, memorialHub experiments) to hit a 60fps native target
- Shipped on the App Store across 6 platforms (iOS, Android, web, watchOS, iPadOS, macOS) with 46 edge functions, 198 database migrations, native watchOS companion, and real-time subscriptions
- Built 6-dashboard admin command center with 3-tier AI behavior monitoring, Datadog RUM, and PostHog analytics
