About

Software Engineer at Pivotal where lately I been doing mostly Java/SpringBoot and Javascript/Angular1-2, although my background has been for the most part of my career on Ruby/Ruby on Rails. During my free time I been lately I have been learning ReactJS, I like the simplicity of the component model, small learning curve and vibrant community. Ultimately I strongly believe in the use the right tool for the job.

More Information

I love learning. I’m the happiest when I’m learning something new. It could be anything, a new language, new tool, new practice, new pattern.

I love reading. I read everything on the internet useful or not. It’s a blessing and a curse, on one hand I am fairly up todate on what’s happening on the tech scene and also allows me to suggest new solutions based on something I read recently but on the other hand this steal time from other activities which me makes me think that some days I didn’t do anything except working and reading.

I love food and sports. (Follow me on the #gram for more details on that)[http://instagram.com/lurraca06]
