"I have a vast amount of professional experience as an Android, Kotlin, and Java developer. I have taught all three in various professional settings as well. I also have a Ph. D. in Philosophy, and have taught courses in Philosophy, Logic, and Discrete Math.

I have over 25 years experience as a professional programmer, most recently as an Android developer using Java and Kotlin (and the last six of those were at Square/Block).

I was also recently an instructor for Big Nerd Ranch's Android, Kotlin, Compose, and Go bootcamps.

For over 10 years, I taught Johns Hopkins Center for Talented Youth's (CTY) in person computer science course to gifted Junior High School and High School students. I have also been an online Java instructor for the Center for Talented Youth. I put together a little blog of good Java habits for my Java courses here: https://dev.to/mbrubin56/good-habits-for-new-java-programmers-1n2.

I have a Ph.D. in Philosophy, and have taught college level courses in logic and philosophy. I went to Princeton as an undergraduate student and UCLA as a graduate student. You can find my dissertation at https://www.dropbox.com/s/090yxpryf33i166/mark%20rubin%20dissertation.pdf?dl=0 ." less...
