Software Engineer & Developer Advocate
I'm a developer advocate and software engineer. I help developers get the most out of MongoDB, turning complex database challenges into simple, practical solutions that make their lives easier.
Often you'll find me in the kitchen or yelling at the TV during a fútbol match. Nothing like cooking and soccer to teach you patience, timing, improvisation and beauty.
