Livecast Hosts and Commentators
Here’s the lineup of our WWDC Livecast hosts and our key iOS team members ready to share their opinions about what comes out of WWDC this year:
Susannah Skyer Gupta
Susannah’s been in a decades-long unrequited love affair with Apple beginning with a Mac SE and an ImageWriter LQ and going from there. She’s part of the small-but-mighty Apparent Software team and an aspiring indie dev. Here at Kodeco, she hosts the podcast, creates learning modules, and enjoys the monthly book club on Discord.
Dru Freeman
Dru started writing code for Apple products at the age of 11 when he received an Apple ][. As computers and the internet were only a passing fad (said the sales guy at CompUSA), he went off to study Theatrical and Mass Media production. As a result, he self-taught himself through Basic, Pascal, Object Pascal, C, C++, Objective-C, and then Swift. Many years ago he discovered writing code paid more than waiting tables.
Franklin Byaruhanga
Franklin is a Native Mobile App Developer with a telecommunications background. He actively participates in open-source projects and takes pleasure in imparting knowledge as a mentor for Kodeco boot camps.
Mikaela Caron
Mikaela is an independent iOS developer and member of the Swift Ecosystem Steering Group, building her own apps and doing freelance work. She shares her developer experience on social media, speaks at conferences, organizes the monthly online meetup called iOSDevHappyHour, and is the co-host of the podcast Swift over Coffee with SwiftSensei Paul Hudson
Ray Fix
Ray Fix works on next-generation microscopes made for iPad at Discover Echo Inc. in San Diego, California. Ray enjoys learning new things and is excited about math, data, visualization, machine learning and computer vision. Swift is his problem-solving language of choice.

He is also the founder, producer and host of the More Than Just Code Podcast — a podcast covering mobile app development & business and SpockCast, a sci-fi pop culture podcast.
