About Me

Hi, my name is John Carpenter and I'm a mobile software developer out of Canada.

I spend most of my days developing and helping others develop mobile applications. I have a strong background in Geomatics and spatial programming  so you'll see a heavy emphasis on mapping and location-based technologies.

Mob4Hire is a crowdsourced mobile application testing and market research company that I am fortunate enough to be CTO at. We provide crowdsource services to many mobile developers across the world and ultimately help them gather customer feedback in making better mobile applications.
