Where’s your hometown? – El Roble, Alajuela.
How many years have you worked in your field? – For over 8 years.
Best advice you have received personally or professionally? – Be committed, work as hard as you rest, and be responsible — your career depends on that. Most importantly, take some time to relax and enjoy life, there is only one.
If you could perform on stage with one famous musician/group, who would it be and why? – Led Zeppelin, they are pure magic on stage! I would also love to play with Metallica. A full-on metal concert with me playing the piano would sound awesome!
How do you spend your free time? – I like to play music and video games, test emerging technologies, and hang out with my family.
What is your guilty pleasure TV show? – Dragon Ball! I eat, dream, and sleep thinking of it!
Where do you go to relax and recharge? – I go to the mountains. I find it very relaxing to go to a very cold pool located in the Alajuela hills.
What made you want to work at Gorilla Logic? – I had talked with Cheri, a Gorilla Logic recruiter, a few times and she told me about the awesome benefits and the great environment Gorilla has. When I thought it was the right moment, Gorilla opened its doors and now I am here.
What is your personal motto? – Talk to me face to face, because my back doesn’t have ears.
What is your most used tool in your office? – Probably my laptop 🙂
Something that your LinkedIn profile couldn’t tell us? – I like to make others laugh. I enjoy when everybody is happy and laughing.
Who are the biggest cheerleaders in your life? – My family.
