Bio
Hello. My name is Mike Zornek but many of my friends simply call me Zorn. I am a senior developer and amateur user interface critic with a rich background in Apple technologies; Mac development since 2001 and iPhone development since 2009, active CocoaHeads leader for the Philadelphia chapter. I also dabble in web development, historically in PHP and Rails but doing more EmberJS and Elixir work these days. When not coding I also love teaching. I’ve taught formal workshops through Big Nerd Ranch and served as an adjunct instructor at Drexel University.
