The Tysons Apps Team

We're a small team that loves to tackle large problems.  Tysons Apps was founded in 2012 by Jared Alexander and Rose Blais Alexander, who share a love for technology and software development.  

From writing product specifications to quality assurance and more, Rose wears several hats to ensure our clients always receive outstanding applications.  Jared leads Tysons Apps' development and brings over 13 years of software development experience and six years of app development experience to the team.  They both have private and public sector software/product development experience and are active in the DC Tech Community.
