  • Performance optimization and debugging

  • Career advice and navigating the iOS job market

Liquid Glass Consulting Now Available!

Liquid Glass isn’t just a new coat of paint. It reshapes layout behaviors, default interactions, and appearance across your app. Transitioning early gives your team time to adapt — instead of rushing at the Xcode 27 deadline. With a consultation, I could help by:

  • Reviewing your app for potential UI/UX conflicts with the new system

  • Evaluating navigation, modals, popovers, and layout behavior

  • Providing annotated report or paired session with implementation advice

How It Works

  • Inquiry Form: Fill out the Inquiry Form to provide details about your needs

  • Personalized Follow-Up: I will review your request and reach out with pricing and next steps

  • Scheduling & Payment: Once aligned, I’ll provide a scheduling link and payment details

Need ongoing support? I also offer retainer packages for teams looking for continuous mentorship.
