I’m extremely passionate about knowledge; wherever I go, you will always find a book inside my trusty rucksack - it could be a technical book, a novel, essays; anything that broadens my mind and understanding.

I try to apply this passion across all aspects of my life.

A large part of this passion is dedicated to technology. It is a subject I have loved since I was a child and had my first contact with primitive computers (MSX and AMIGA). My latest readings “Clean Code” and “The Pragmatic Programmer” have inspired me to be a better developer.

I always have some kind of project underway in my spare time; I'm currently working on an augmented reality mobile application that allows people to report incidents using Geolocation . I also enjoy playing with my Arduino; it is amazing what you can create using the most basic electronic elements combined with a bit of imagination.

If I had to define myself professionally, I like to think of myself as a craftsman polyglot developer. I love to code, to learn different technologies, languages and new methodologies; software communities are invaluable in honing my expertise and keeping me at the forefront of my craft.

I am a firm believer in the Agile movement, and that collaboration with my customers is the only way to create the best solution.
