Hi, I'm Matt.
I'm an indie iOS, Mac, and web developer, as well as a writer and video producer (and a product manager, by the way!), who has a love for personal computing and making our devices work for us.
Founded in 2025, Birchtree Productions is my attempt to bring that spirit forward. Every app is built with care, every piece of content is made for humans, and nothing here is optimized for engagement metrics.
In a world that chases profits and power over everything else, I aim to offer an alternative worldview.
