My passion in computers and programming started when I was 8 years old and playing at debugging BASIC programs my father wrote. Since then, I never stopped learning and experimenting and I made it my career. My experience as an expert developer and architect is in finding solutions to all needs and problems that cross my path. I excel at prototyping, leveraging 3rd party products and Open Source contributions, establishing best practices, and leading teams that gets the job done. Over time, I have developed skills in creating highly scalable and available cloud applications, pipeline automation, data collection and analytics,
