Apart from being a software engineer and an engineering manager, I enjoy most of my time outdoors. I'm a rookie CrossFitter who enjoys running, cycling, and swimming as well, I've completed 3 IronMan 70.3 races (Lanzarote ES, Sardegna IT, Cascais PT). Enjoy the occasional long walk/hike.

I'm also an enthusiast photographer and a coffee snob.
