About

Mike’s been working with Android since the early days of Donut. Originally doing radio interface layer work for the telephony team of a small Vancouver services company, Mike has since moved on to focusing on user facing Android apps.

Having lived through the dark days of non-standard OEM ListView implementations and pre-Holo theme disarray, Mike now finds himself serving as the Android push notification specialist at Slack. Through a mixture of the dark arts, trial and error and a dash of luck, he’s come away with some knowledge about what works and what doesn’t and is eager to share that information with the Android community at large!
