epocrates search

After a career spent on short-term projects, I spent the better part of a year dedicated to rebuilding the search functionality within Epocrates, an app half of the doctors in the US rely upon.

I helped build the team and then we built the best medical search engine in the world.

xcode prototyping

I love building things. If I was better at it, I'd be a full-time developer. But that doesn't stop me from absorbing as much as I can. In an effort to learn the basics of building iOS apps and to make me a better designer, I dove in.
