Hi, I’m Marty!
I’m a Computer Engineering graduate from the University of Pennsylvania with a passion for creating software and sharing knowledge. My career began at Bell Labs as a Unix Kernel Developer, and since then, I’ve worked on projects that shaped how we interact with technology—like enabling carrier text messaging and pioneering early mobile apps.

Hi, I’m Marty!
I’m a Computer Engineering graduate from the University of Pennsylvania with a passion for creating software and sharing knowledge. My career began at Bell Labs as a Unix Kernel Developer, and since then, I’ve worked on projects that shaped how we interact with technology—like enabling carrier text messaging and pioneering early mobile apps. (Fun fact: I also built the software for the R2-D2 phone!)
With over 40 years of experience, I’ve mastered a wide range of technologies, including Java, JavaScript, Dart, Flutter, Android, iOS, Swift, and cloud platforms like Azure and Firebase. I bring real-world expertise in design patterns (MVC, MVVM, reactive programming) and have tackled challenges across front-end, back-end, and full-stack development.
I believe that understanding why the code works is just as important as how to write it. My teaching approach focuses on giving you a clear understanding of the big picture while building your practical skills. Whether you’re starting from scratch, refining a project, or growing as a developer, I’ll tailor lessons to your goals.
Mentoring is one of the most rewarding parts of my career. I love helping students unlock their potential, solve challenges, and bring their ideas to life. Let’s collaborate and make your computer science journey both exciting and successful—I can’t wait to get started!
