Sam Dean , Morpeth, United Kingdom

A lifelong self-professed geek who grew up learning to develop on a VIC-20 and since then I have never looked back. I have a passion for technology and a love of learning new languages, as an avid user of Stack Overflow you can see my prolific involvement in the world of coding here http://*****.***

Having developed skills in a range of environments from embedded C in digital radios, PHP development for a hotel website, Flash for an experimental search prototype and Ruby on Rails for a ticketing app, I then moved into mobile development and have remained in that arena. My mobile experience includes labs projects, successful commerce apps, social apps and internal business-facing applications.
I have developed clienteling apps for LVMH bringing new technology to many of their brands as well as working as technology lead in the mobile app team at net-a-porter from its conception through to a 20-30% share of revenue, growing by 180% year on year with no signs of slowing.
Technology is a huge part of my life and I thoroughly enjoy coding, I bring with me a questioning mind, the ability to adapt to changing technologies and a passion so far unrivaled.
