About me

I've started programming on a ZX Spectrum computer when I was 14 years old and never stopped since. Meanwhile I've studied computer science, I've worked for different big companies and startups from Europe and US and now I'm doing freelancing. I've been recently working on Python/Django, Javascript and Android projects. These days I'm very interested in Bitcoin, distributed applications and machine learning!

I consider myself a polyglot developer and I like to learn about new frameworks and programming languages, specially about functional ones. I love challenging technical and algorithmical problems so if you have any then please contact me!

Otherwise I have different hobbies like dancing argentine tango, flying gliders/paragliders and personal development. I now live in Bucharest, Romania (GMT+2/3) and I like to travel once in a while.
