Command-Tab is the personal weblog and internet home of Collin Allen.

I'm a Staff Software Engineer at Pixar Animation Studios, where I design, build, and maintain full-stack web and native Apple platform apps. The opinions here are entirely my own.

I've been fascinated by computers and electronics since the early '90s, ranging from UI design down to the bits, bytes, and chips. Really, anything I can take apart to understand better has my attention. I care deeply about both the software and the hardware, especially the intersection of the two and the interesting and user-empowering things that happen there.

I live in Marin County, California with my wife, two kids, and a cat.
