Studies

In my first year of university I really hated all my programming subjects. Then, I realized that's the thing I most enjoyed ever. First we started with C, then Java, then C++, and finally, my beloved Javascript. We did a lot of stuff: Games development, web development, 3D development (Shaders, WebGL, Modelling...), photography, design, video processing, etc.

During this years I studied abroad in Ireland, an internship in Germany and had one of the best experiences of my life launching a Start-up with some good colleagues.

Work

My internship at adidas was the first touch with the real-life-work® , and I really enjoyed it, as I could learn many things that are not taught in universities. So just before finishing my studies I got another internship to work for some months in my university in a really cool project, which finally would be part of my Bachelor's Thesis.

Finally I got back to the starting point, getting a real-life-job® in adidas, where I am growing as a person and engineer day by day.

In July 2020 I decided to get out of the comfort zone and try to build some stuff for myself. Me and my partner started building a Van.
