About Me

I make apps like SketchParty TV – an Apple TV party game – and Waypoint EDU – an educational AR scavenger hunt – both featured in Apple WWDC Keynotes.

In addition to creating my own products, I am also a consultant on mobile apps for large and mid-sized companies, and sometimes for startups, having worked in both large and small teams using agile methodologies. I can probably help you bring an app idea to life or make your existing app faster and more fun to use.

You can find more info about my apps SketchParty TV, Waypoint EDU, MASH, and Truth Truth Lie (TTL) on my company website, magnateinteractive.com

Recommendations

Let's cut to the chase — I simply couldn't recommend Matt enough. Yes, he's adept at writing code and all of the functional items that a developer needs to master. I'll let someone else weigh in on those particulars. What makes Matt exponentially more valuable to me is his collaborative nature, general positivity and get-it-done attitude. I can genuinely say that I enjoyed every interaction I had with Matt over the past few years, even when we were up against timing and budget constraints. A great developer, yes, but an even better person. I sincerely hope I work with Matt again.

Matt has the ability to hear a clients stated and unstated needs and has skill to explain and deliver a software product (website, app, etc) that exceeds the customer's expectations. As a software customer, I often get annoyed with software engineer's who try to conform your needs into their preferences or abilities. Matt does not do this. He is able because of his software acumen and business experience to conform his skills into what your business needs to succeed.

Matt and I worked together for a year and a half on a very large scale and complex scientific suite of applications. He was one of those rare developers that could work in writing native iOS code one minute and then writing HTML/JS the next. He did an exceptional job working with the client, delivering high quality code, and providing thought leadership on different solutions to problems. I hope we get to work together on something again soon.
