Todd Davies is a software engineer and educator with 14 years of experience combining hands-on Android mobile development and large-scale engineering at Google with academic teaching and research at UCL. He leads the Competition Law and Consumer Protection module while supervising theses, and is completing a PhD after earning an MSc from TUM and a BSc from Manchester. Todd has a practical open-source streak—his reusable Android ProgressWheel component demonstrates attention to UI polish and reusability beyond standard widgets. Equally comfortable in research and production environments, he has interned and shipped features across multiple Google roles and led mobile teams earlier in his career. Based in London, he brings a rare mix of industry-grade engineering, academic rigor, and product-focused mobile craftsmanship.
