I was born in La Habana, Cuba. When I was five my family moved to a city in Mexico called Cuernavaca. There I saw and used a computer for the first time. A few years later I had my own and used the internet for the first time. This was like 1998/1999.

Funny enough, during my middle school years I thought programming would be boring. It wasn't until college that I found that I really enjoyed it. By chance I came across PG's essays perhaps 16 months ago. Now I am moving to San Francisco to work for a startup. Funny how things happen.
