The Choice
2026 →I'm Robin. I fell down the rabbit hole in 2015, when an iOS app I taught myself to build in college pulled me into San Francisco tech.
Now I build the wonderlands instead of visiting them: design the product, build the app, train the model, write the copy.
If you're early and need the first version built, or you want to back one of these, email me.
How deep does it go?
Alice drank hers. Neo swallowed his. Same door.
