About Andrew Long

I build web and mobile apps end to end, from the database to the AWS servers they run on.

I'm Andrew Long, a senior full stack developer at Mad Genius. I build client web and mobile apps from the database schema to production, and I fix security and compliance gaps in AWS for Mississippi state agencies.

I got here through SEO and marketing work, so I usually ask what a build is supposed to do for the business before I start it. When I don't know something, I go find out.
