Not sure how many of you will see this, or if this post will go anywhere.

But I’m looking for a job. Have been for a while. I have a good career as an iOS developer and would like to keep making apps. If anyone out there is interested please DM me, look at my linked in, boost this post, etc. Thanks all.
