I'm passionate about software development and I have been coding and delivering solutions for over 15 years. Facing new challenges on a daily basis and working together with talented people are what keep me loving what I do.
My main areas of interest are DevOps, Cloud Computing, Microservices and Information Visualisation.
I also love traveling (who doesn't?), craftsmanship and I have a huge passion for classical music. I play Violin, Cello and Oboe. Learning how to play new instruments keep my mind sharp and allows me to express a lot of emotions through their 'voice'. You can hear me playing a one-man-quartet song bellow.
At last but not least, I enjoy coffee making. Now, I would like to hear from you, so...
