Overview

7 years in software engineering, the last 3 at Lakemont Solutions, where I lead the Android team. Wrote the Gradle service that now handles 33 million requests a day. Cut cold-start time on low-end Android phones by 35%. Before that: Wise and Denholm Financial. I host a monthly meetup on mobile apps.
