Owen Griffiths
Owen has been developing software since the mid 1990s and remembers the productivity of languages such as Clipper and Borland Delphi.
Since 2001, He moved to Web, Server based Java and the Open Source revolution. With many years of commercial Java experience, He picked up on Kotlin in early 2015. After taking detours into Clojure and Scala, like Goldilocks, He thinks Kotlin is just right and tastes the best. Owen enthusiastically helps Kotlin developers continue to succeed.
