I, Patrick McCarron, am an iOS and Mac app / game developer from Chicago. I developed one of the first iPhone games back in 2007 and haven't stopped since. Check out my app Portfolio for more info on the projects I've worked on.

I'm also an avid video game enthusiast who has been writing FAQs, websites and guides for video games since the 90s. I currently run the longest running Mortal Kombat fan site: The Realm of Mortal Kombat (TRMK) in my spare time.
