I've been tinkering with Android since 2015. The next 4 years I was in college at the University of Arkansas until I graduated in Spring 2020 with a Bachelors of Science in Computer Science. I worked at Walmart as a Systems Engineer out of college before transitioning into an Android role. When I haven't been tinkering with Android, it's probably because I was substituting it with Rust.
