I’m an Android developer based in Vancouver with over seven years of Android experience and more than ten years in software development overall. I’ve worked on several large-scale apps, including Abbott’s Freestyle Libre glucose monitoring app, where I contributed to the Android and React Native development, focusing on real-time data handling and modern Android architecture using Kotlin, Hilt, and Jetpack Compose. Before that, I worked on other apps involving location sharing, diagnostics, and mobile payments — so I’ve had a chance to deal with challenges like background processing, data persistence, and user experience design. What I enjoy most about Android development is turning complex ideas into smooth, intuitive user experiences. I’m also a strong communicator and team player — I enjoy collaborating in agile teams and solving problems together. I’m now looking for a role where I can contribute my technical skills and creativity to products that make a real-world impact, like improving people’s daily lives through technology.
