Scott Ritchie

Scott Ritchie has been a Mac and iOS instructor for Big Nerd Ranch for well over a decade. With graduate degrees in Computer Science from the University of Washington and UC Berkeley, he is also a veteran of Sun Microsystems, NeXT, and Apple. From a PostScript window server written in C, through the AppKit days in Objective-C, and now to Swift’s protocol-oriented approach, Scott has been there through the complete evolution of the technologies we teach about today. He currently makes his home deep in the redwoods of the Santa Cruz Mountains and is pretty certain he can never spend too much time outdoors nor have too many guitars.
