My Story
The first tech thing I put my hands on was probably a GameBoy at the age of 3. Few years later, in the 90s, I was using a Commodore AMIGA 600 to play games and write simple stuff. I discovered I could do a lot of things, mess them up, and start again, creating new ones. It was amazing and I was fascinated. Those were the days when my passion for technology was born, and since then, my love for it always increased!
Nowadays, I'm an Android Developer with several years of experience. I started writing small pieces of Android code from Android 2.3 Gingerbread (2010), but my Android experience started sometime before with Android 2.1 Eclair, when I modded my HTC HD2 to run Android instead of Windows Mobile 6.5!
Since that day I have been daily using and loving Android! I have written my Bachelor thesis on Android and Developed an Android App, then I wrote GeoTask, a simple app which helps you with daily tasks based on geofences.
So I started my work career, doing some Java Web Application and some Android Apps, until I was finally able to follow the Android path completely, till today: I write beautiful Android Apps with Kotlin and I love it!
