Oliver White

The Head of Rebel Labs for ZeroTurnaround, Oliver was turned from a marketing droid into a real boy in mid-2010 when he joined the team. While not a developer himself, he likes to simply gaze at code when not writing nine-thousand emails a day. Back when he had free time, Oliver liked books, films, dogs, large steaks, staring at large world maps and strolling through the deeply-forested parks of the Czech Republic, where he lives. You can connect with Oliver on LinkedIn.
