About me

Caolán on a mountain top in Spain
Me on a mountain in Valencia

I decided to become a programmer because I am inspired by its potential to make people’s lives easier and better. I love the creative, problem-solving nature of software engineering and the amazing feeling I get when solving hard problems, especially when working in a team. In my free time I love to travel and hike.
