Hobbies

Cycling

I'm someone that uses his bike for his daily transport as well as for recreative use. Most of the time I ride on my own and use my loger rides to get some time for my own to let my mind slow down whilst I try to go as fast as possible.

Knowledge sharing

I like to prepare presentations (some of them can be found here) about things I've learned to share with co-workers.

I also enjoy learning new things through meetups or reading in my free-time.
