Hi, I’m Emily! I’m an iOS Engineer based in Portland, Oregon.
I build apps in Swift, SwiftUI, and Objective-C. I use Python and shell scripting for creating automations and tools. But most of all I enjoy tinkering and learning new technologies.
Currently I am available to work remotely or onsite in the PNW. Please reach out to me via the Contact page if you’d like to connect and find out whether I would be a fit for your company or project.
My app Barbell Math is available in the App Store for download now. This tool helps the user do calculations to load a barbell to a given weight with various configurations of plates. You can check out the source code for this project on GitHub.
Some of my other recent projects include:
Creating a python tool for Portland Integrative Fitness to process and reformat workout templates stored in Google Sheets
Building “Just-for-fun” iOS apps like Drink Generator and Boxing Scheduler
Contributing a release automation script to the open source Python package tldextract
Undertaking a data analysis project on my personal “quantified self” data so that I can create an SQLite database of my own time-tracking data from the last 5+ years
Programming shortcuts into NFC tags
You can read more about many of my projects on my Portfolio page and follow my progress on GitHub or Twitter.
In my previous lifetime I owned and ran Bold & Badass Fitness, a powerlifting gym focused on providing a body-positive, queer-friendly, and inclusive fitness community. Before that, I was a world-ranked professional MMA fighter signed to Invicta Fighting Championships. Even farther back? I helped non-profits fundraise to help critical services get to where they were needed most.

When I’m not writing code I can be found powerlifting, boxing, reading a book, rewatching a Star Trek episode, or checking out new food cart or tiki bar.
I am a Reed College graduate, class of 2010.
