Michael Lustig
Hello, I am Michael Lustig, and I love Android. My fascination with the Operating System stems from back in the days of Gingerbread. My first Android device was the Original Droid's partner in crime, the Droid Eris. My earliest memory of that phone was finding SetCPU for Root Users. At the time, I had no idea what that meant, but I bought it anyway, determined to tinker with my device. Now I am a passionate Android developer, teacher, and mentor, with experience managing Android applications on the Play Store that have accumulated over 2,000,000 downloads.
