Hello everyone, I'm a Colombian computer scientist based in Bogotá. Currently, I work at Achievers, where I develop websites facilitating coworker connectivity and recognition of their accomplishments. Before this, I honed my skills at tech companies like IBM, Blackboard, and Twilio, where I focused on enhancing the value of their products through web application development. I earned my degree in Systems and Computing Engineering from The University of Los Andes. Outside of work, I'm passionate about practicing yoga and sharing the knowledge I've gained with others.
