About

I'm an exuberant software developer, leader, and speaker, with 12+ years experience building applications using the Microsoft technology stack. I specialize in building awesome cross-platform mobile apps using Xamarin technologies and am a 5-time Xamarin Certified Mobile Developer. (it's an old picture)

I live and work in the bustling center of "Silicon Prairie", Minneapolis MN, where I'm a Lead Mobile App Developer at Polaris Industries working on the Ride Command family of mobile apps for Off-road & Snow, Indian Motorcycle, and Slingshot

Apps

In addition to my professional work, I've also published several personal apps to the iOS App Store & Google Play Store

How Deep Is It?
Pickster, for iOS and Android
Fresh Brews, for iOS and Android
Tsaphan, for iOS and Android
Spaniel, for iOS and Android (which I've now made open source)

Speaking

I regularly attend and speak at the MN Enterprise Mobile meeptup for Xamarin developers, so if you’re in the area I’d highly recommend checking it out.

Some of my current talks right now:

And the next events I’ll be speaking at:

Open Source

  • Spaniel - An MVVM Xamarin.Forms app for iOS and Android to help run health checkups on your RESTful web service endpoints

I wrote the UWP support for these two great drawing libraries that are popular among Xamarin developers:

  • NGraphics - a cross platform library for rendering vector graphics on .NET
  • NControl - a simple Xamarin.Forms wrapper control around the NGraphics library

Contact

I love meeting and connecting with new people, so let’s be friends on Twitter!
