Summary

I’m a software developer and consultant in Stack Builders. I have been working in the software industry for many years building solutions for the research, financial, gaming, artificial intelligence, and publishing media industries.

I had a short career with the start-up world. I was part of teams that won programs like Start-up Chile, Launch:Alaska, and OCEAN (OH, USA).

I am a community leader at my current job. In the past years, I've been planning and executing initiatives for events and social media. I speak regularly at universities and meetups about software engineering and best practices to contribute to the software industry in my country. I’m a co-organizer of Quito Lambda, a meetup focused on functional programming in Ecuador.

Check out my latest talks as an international speaker:

🧑‍🏫 Functional Programming inside OOP? It’s possible with Python at PyCon Colombia 2021

🧑‍🏫 How to start using types in Python with Mypy at PyCon China 2020

🧑‍🏫 Type Driven Development at PyCon Colombia 2020

I wrote some small articles at DEV community and some Spanish articles (mother tongue) to give advice on project management.

✍️. Se busca developer… ¿Pero a quién?

✍️. Teamwork! Trabajando en equipo

✍️. Copiar lo mejor de Japón para aumentar la calidad

Besides technology, I practice martial arts (Kendo). I like to bike, swim, hike in the mountains and learn how to be a better 🏳️‍🌈 ally.
