About Me

Hi! I am a systems engineering student at Universidad de los Andes, Colombia.
I am 20 years old and I am currently taking my seventh semester. My interests in computer science are in the area of software development, natural language processing, and security. After I graduate, I desire to build some professional experience before going to study a masters degree abroad.

I also like to teach. I have had great experiences in pedagogy and I feel that I could have an interesting impact on new generations by teaching them how to interact and stay human, while using technologies for their own benefit and for building greater things.

Interests

Now that you know a little bit more about me, I feel comfortable to share some of my interests

Animals

I do like animals a lot. My father is a vet and he taught me a lot on how to treat them and take care of them. These are my lovely cats

Music

My favourite band of all times is Pink Floyd. Here I share the song that brings me more peace. It is called The Great Gig in the Sky

Series

The following video is a famous quote from one of my favourite series, called True Detective. I like the Nietszche element present in this speech

Multiculturalism

This video is a long ted talk where a nigerian woman expresses a lot of what I like of multiculturalism and how every group of people has something to tell the world

Sports

I like to watch and play football. I used to train football 11 but I also loved playing futsal and football 5. Since my childhood, I am a Manchester United fan
Another one of my favourite sports is tennis. I learned how to play when I was 17 years old, but I think I have improved a little bit. I train squash more frequently, though.
