I have been doing Android since my school days. What started as building a treasure hunt app for my girlfriend turned into a full time career a few years later. In college, I built an app called the Indian Logo Quiz, that is not on the Play Store anymore but got around 50k downloads. Later when in university, I built Now Playing Tracker, an app to track the songs identified by the Google Pixel in the background. Got around 5-6k downloads and still lives on the Play Store. Started my professional career at VMware working on MDM apps and now working at Level Home on Android apps interacting with hardware devices using Bluetooth and Wifi APIs. When not writing code, I usually am out and about traveling and clicking photos on my analog camera.
