People pay me to write software since 2010, two years after my first serious contact with algorithms. Before, I used to have fun learning Linux while formatting the same system a number of times (often unintentionally and without backups).

Nowadays, I enjoy working on large-scale systems. On top of coding, I also like talking to stakeholders, listening to different outlooks, researching, and doing presentations.

Created and led Operation “Serenata de Amor” to become one of the most prominent civic tech projects in Latin America.
