Origin Stories #24 - Jordan Morgan - iOS Dev @ Buffer & Creator of Spend Stack

In this episode of Origin Stories I speak with Jordan Morgan, iOS developer at Buffer and creator of the app Spend Stack. We get to hear how Jordan broke into the industry after earning his CS Degree and how that led him to Buffer. We also get a bonus Origin Story with how Spend Stack came to be. If you have ANY interest in launching your own app on the App Store, then this podcast will be pure gold. Lot's of great info around the topic of independent app developer. Building, marketing, launching, monetization... we talk about it all.

Origin Stories is a series of interviews with iOS developers from the community where we discuss how they got their start in this industry. We discuss how they first became interested in code, what resources they used to learn, how they got their first job and much more.
