About

The about section also brings the question who am I. I am Luís Ribeiro, bornt near the highest mountain of Portugal, with strong passion for IT. I like doing sports, which swimming is my preference. Cars and its entire concept is something that also fascinates me. In IT, I have a big interest for software defined things (specially network) and I like to spend time in learning new trends and technologies. My main skills are VMware administration and automation, but since the day that I had to integrate an external tool to monitor the infrastructure using Python, that I learn more about the DevOps mindset and tools, which now I try to apply in my some of mine daily tasks.
