"I highly recommend Zac for any MVP design and UI/UX work you need professionally done. He has a rare ability to take early-stage ideas and rapidly turn them into clean, intuitive, and functional designs.
For our startup, he transformed a verbal concept into a working app in just a couple of weeks, helping us bring our medical device to life with a seamless user experience. His strategic input, speed, budget-friendly quotes, and attention to detail were invaluable. It'd be a pleasure to work with him again in the near future."
AJ Trelease, MS
"I want to express my sincere gratitude for Zac's exceptional help in creating my application. As someone who isn't a developer/coder, I truly appreciated his professionalism and forward-thinking approach throughout the entire development process.
Zac laid out the groundwork so clearly that all I had to do was fill in the blocks with my ideas. Thanks to his expertise, we had a working MVP and were testing it in no time.
If you're looking for a software developer, I highly recommend Zac. He not only excels in development but also possesses a strong business acumen. "

"I've been working with Zac to build a new Shopify app and he's been wonderful to work with. He keeps me in the loop with progress, has built an MVP and iterates as we get client feedback, and has overcome some tech hurdles along the way. Plus, he's a great dude! Highly recommend. "
Dan Cassidy

Lately
Dabbling with native Android development with Kotlin and Jetpack Compose. I know quite a few iOS developers, but only ever met one Android guy. I also own an Android phone myself, so why not.
Working on getting my Certified in Cybersecurity from ISC2 because all of us can always be a little more secure. I enjoy configuring and setting up servers on Linux, so any knowledge on being more secure would be helpful. I also learn a lot from the guys from the ILM IT Security meetup group
The UNCW 2026 Spring semester just started, so I've been offering tutoring and mentorship for students who want help with web/app development. I'm also planning a workshop topic on building stream overlays to present there.
The Wilmington Input Output meetup group has been going great. I've started to help organize a little bit again and form a small team to help make the meetups even more awesome.
