Bio
Diego wanted to study philosophy or engineering, and intuitively decided for engineering because he thought it would be more practical, and because he figured it would be easier to listen to music while solving exercises than reading Aristotle.
He always had a knack for using his computer as a tool more than an entertainment device, which made the transition to programming feel quite natural. He quickly fell in love with creating things, and the possibility of being comfortable while doing it.
In his spare time, he enjoys hanging out with friends, trying out new restaurants, cooking and playing basketball.
