As the Principal at NodeDa, I am pursuing an entrepreneurial journey dedicated to developing impactful, AI-driven solutions for accessibility and digital transformation. NodeDa operates as a passion project where I oversee the creation of innovative tools designed for future growth and societal impact. A notable example is the NodeDa Cookbook app, which empowers users to create, edit, and store recipes while integrating AI-driven features like personalized meal planning and SousChef (AI Chat), our generative AI assistant. While NodeDa is not my primary professional focus, it represents my commitment to advancing technology with inclusivity at its core. In my role, I provide strategic direction, collaborate with teams, and ensure that each project aligns with our vision of driving meaningful innovation. Through this venture, I aim to lay the foundation for NodeDa's long-term contributions to the AI landscape.

NodeDa (Formally ADX Studios) is a software company focused on creating accessible and modern designed applications; that are inclusive and diverse.

As my work transitioned to NodeDa, the business took over the rights and responsibilities for the projects I had previously managed independently as a self-employed app developer. As the sole developer, I had taken on complete responsibility for developing the apps, including designing the UX, creating the app icon, and managing marketing. I coded the apps using Swift in Xcode and successfully published them on the App Store, handling certificates and provisioning profiles. These projects were exclusively developed for iOS and macOS. Notably, iChefBook was rebranded as Recipedo in January 2021 to better align its identity with its purpose and target audience.
