Education

I studied computer science at Universidad Católica del Uruguay where I took my first steps in the programming world and obtained some solid background to build my career upon. However, I prefer real life experience over formal education. The subjects I really enjoyed at school were mostly those that gave me hands-on experience in technology: Algorithms, OOP, DBMSs, Artificial Intelligence, Theory of Languages and Computation, Networking, etc.
