Hi, I’m Sungmin Choi (Tommy). I’m a hands-on Android/Frontend engineer who loves building production apps from architecture to deployment, with a focus on performance and maintainability. I value feedback from real users and iteratively improve features to enhance the user experience. My recent work spans Android apps with Jetpack Compose, MVVM, and Kotlin Coroutines, to full-stack web frontends and cloud deployments. I’ve implemented automated testing, streamlined Google Play release pipelines, and contributed optimizations to open-source projects.
