My name is Micah Benn, and I've been a self-taught iOS and web developer since 13 years old. I now mainly work with Objective-C, Swift, Python, Java, and HTML/CSS.


After finding out about the iOS SDK, I began creating iOS apps. YouTube, StackOverflow, and GitHub were how I learned. A couple months after I began learning, I released my first app, Map with Camera. Since then, I have been enjoying expanding my skill set. In July 2013, I released Flöcle, a time-based matching game that would be eventually featured by Apple in their "20 Under 20" promotion in Asia.


I attend Pepperdine University, where I study Computer Science/Math.
