I first learned Java while taking a class in college and really took off from there. I fell in love with object oriented programming and especially Java itself. I've had years of experience using java while developing on the Android platform as well as some server work.

I started using Android Studio back in v0.8 (I believe that was the version). Back then the interface and backend were nothing to brag about but since then Google has really made it into one of the top IDEs out there. I've now had years of experience using Android Studio and am comfortable using it in any capacity.

I recommend John. He was able to identify and fix a couple of problems. He is very pleasant to work with, and I plan to use him in the future. I give him my highest rating. He explains things well.
