About emi420

I started coding as a kid and never stopped. With +20 years of experience working on software design & engineering, a met a lot of people from different countries and a vast range of areas. I’m good working on new and interesting things. I’m not so good working on legacy projects and doing same things everyday. If I’m away from keyboard maybe I’m saving your cat, because I’m a Volunteer Firefighter. I apply same philosophy for all engineering, design and firefighting: make life easier.

Languages I can speak fluently: Spanish, English, JavaScript & Python. But hey, I’m currently talking with the iPhone using C++ and we understand each other.
