Matt Harrington
iOS Developer & Photographer
Hello, my name is Matt Harrington, and I am a Senior iOS Software Engineer Consultant.
Over the years my passion for mathematics and science led me to pursue a field in engineering. Since I always had a piece of tech in my hands, it led me to pursue a Computer Science degree.
I graduated in 2019 with a 4.0 GPA with my major in CS, minor in Mathematics. Since then, I have been lucky enough to have worked on many different problems, with many different outcomes that have led me far into the iOS and tech space, exactly where I dreamed of being back in my earlier years!
