At the end of ’80s I moved…

building systems for Law Enforcement Agencies

as Agile Project Manager.

As strong believer of Software Craftsmanship

I cofounded a Software Craftsmanship company

But, apparently, the market wasn’t ready for high quality software :-( ...

I caught the fever of startup

helping the inception of Veespo

and finally in Plugg, as Chief Software Blacksmith

When I’m not working I love to…

spend time with my family

I love to code

I believe in Agile Metodologies

I’m a CSM

I’m not a boring presenter (I hope...)

http://www.flickr.com/photos/krzysztof86/425011328/

I’m creative and proactive

http://www.flickr.com/photos/seanmctex/9834286/

I think software is made by people, not by resources

http://www.flickr.com/photos/ricemaru/175558637/

so I believe in teamwork

but I can act differently

So…

I'm always looking for new challenges

and reach new objectives together
