Overview

I lead mobile apps at Qatar Airways in Dubai. Mentored 14 engineers through their first promotion. Cut p99 latency on the Android services from 426ms to 161ms. Before that: Microsoft and First Abu Dhabi Bank. Most at home with Android performance and Coroutines. I speak at conferences a couple of times a year.
