ControllerKeys
Map an Xbox or PS5 controller to keyboard & mouse. Vibe code from the couch.
A native Mac utility built from scratch — the kind of small, precise tool that ships when one person owns design, code, and support end to end.

Customer outcomes
The work holds up after shipping.
The best proof is what happens next: a real workflow works, feedback becomes a release, and the customer comes back to say so.
Professional workflow
“ControllerKeys makes the whole setup simple: every button does exactly what I need it to.”
Rizal F. Hariadi, ASU Associate Professor of Physics, uses it to run OBS, slides, and cursor control while teaching 200+ students. Read his note ↗
Feedback → release → outcome
“The developer is responsive and updated the app based on my feedback. I can use it now!”
A Pilates Timer review moved from 3 to 5 stars in 12 days after Watch stability, upcoming moves, and a 10-second transition warning shipped. View review ↗
One repeated signal: listen closely, ship the fix, close the loop while the customer is still engaged.

The path here
Big-scale engineering, indie heart.
Before going solo, I shipped to hundreds of millions of users at companies that don’t forgive bugs.

Indie Developer · iOS & Mac
What started as side projects has grown into a catalog of 35 shipped apps—niche utilities, finance tools, on-device AI, all from scratching my own itch. Design, code, ship, support: the whole loop, solo.
One of my favorites is ControllerKeys, which lets you control your Mac with an Xbox or PS5 controller. Perfect for vibe coding from the couch.

Zoom · Software Engineer
Worked on Whiteboard & Annotation, building cross-platform native features in C++ that shipped to 300M+ daily users across desktop and mobile. A wild time to be at Zoom — the product became synonymous with video calling almost overnight.
2021
Microsoft · Software Engineer
My first job out of college, on the Azure Batch team. I worked on infrastructure that could scale to 100k+ VMs for high-performance computing workloads. Big cloud stuff.
2020
Capital One · Intern
My first remote internship, on the Card Digital Technology team during COVID 2020. I built a serverless Slack chatbot on AWS Lambda + DynamoDB that talked to GitHub’s GraphQL API — my first real taste of agent-shaped systems.
2019
Cadence Design Systems · Intern
My first internship, in Pittsburgh on the Custom IC & PCB R&D team. I wrote C++ for the Virtuoso chip-design tools and spent the summer letting genetic algorithms evolve better chip layouts — about 10% tighter than the manual baseline.
2018 — 2020
Michigan MDP · Research
Two years in Michigan’s Multidisciplinary Design Program. With Radiant Solutions I wrote onboard software for an autonomous search-and-rescue hexacopter, fusing RF beacons with computer vision. With General Motors I led the software side of a generative heat-sink design project — genetic algorithms paired with ANSYS thermal simulations — and picked up the MDP Summer Research Fellowship along the way.

University of Michigan · BSE Computer Science
Computer Science at the College of Engineering with a minor in Business from Ross. Graduated summa cum laude in December 2020 with a 3.8 GPA. Go Blue.
Outside the classroom I served as Operations Officer for HKN Beta Epsilon, the EECS honors society, and was a fellow in the Ross Leaders Academy. For a FinTech class at Ross I consulted for ShieldPay, a London-based escrow-payments startup, on their US market expansion.
