Work History

June 2018 - current: Nike, Inc - Beaverton, OR
Lead Mobile Developer

Leading a team of immensely talented Swift developers to create and maintain features for the hugely popular Nike Run Club mobile application.

Together we have built amazing features such as Challenges, which motivates the community to run through gamification and a leaderboard. We released a shoe tagging feature that allows runnings to attribute shoes to their runs to provide additional context to how their footwear choice can influence their performance.

In addition to building and releasing great features, we have worked together to develop solid design patterns enabling the team to work quickly and swarm on features. We have worked tirelessly chasing down defects to have a crash rate that is significantly lower than the industry average.

A hands-on lead that enjoys building with the team, but I like to enable team members to lead and spread their own influence.
