Selected work

Things I've shipped.

A travel-memory app, a synthwave runner, and a journal that argues good trips don't need an itinerary.

Your travels, beautifully remembered.

A native iOS app that captures, organizes, and transforms travel photos into shareable trip records, auto-tagged with location, woven into beat-synced videos, and synced privately through iCloud.

v2.0 · updated today

Leap between dimensions. Chase the neon high-score.

A one-tap arcade runner built for iOS. Phase between parallel dimensions, chain Quantum combos, and ride a reactive synthwave soundtrack at 120fps.

v4.0 · updated 3mo ago

The best stories happen between plans.

A travel journal documenting 13 countries and counting: guides, shore excursions, and stories that make the case for not over-planning.

Open-source projects coming soon. A couple of GitHub tools landing here next.

About

Hey, I'm Drew.

I'm a software developer in Fairfax, Virginia. I write code by day and ship small, opinionated apps by night.

When I'm not at a keyboard I'm usually somewhere between trips (with a camera roll that desperately needed TripChronos ), tinkering on side projects, or out with my dog Otto.

I like making things that feel considered. Software with the rough edges sanded down, where the details show somebody cared.

Now

What I'm working on.

Taking Prism Runner native: a real Metal prism-refraction shader where the rainbow-cycle stand-in used to be, 120fps on ProMotion, a Daily Prism Challenge, ReplayKit share cards, and the accessibility work that wasn't really possible on the hybrid stack.
