I was on Charlie Chapman's Launched Live podcast at the Deep Dish Swift conference in Chicago in May of 2024. In this interview we discuss the story of how I became a developer, started my YouTube channel/business. We also dive into why I built my app, Creator View and how I got my first iOS Dev job. There's a lot of great iOS dev nuggets in here. Hope you enjoy!
