My favorite movie

Forest Gump

Every time I travel to the states, I bring a few Dr. Peppers from the airport and we watch Forest Gump drinking those with my daughter šŸ„°

Best way to get me excited about something

Just throw me a challenge, the harder the better šŸ„·šŸ¤“

This is why I love coding, there's always something to learn, something to fix, something to improve.

Proud moment

When I joined Candor, it makes me proud to work in a product like this.

It motivated me to continue to learn more every day, and to be as much professional as I can be. Also it felt fantastic to have folks who I can learn from every day!

A fun fact about me isā€¦

My mom convinced me to take a classical dance class when I was 15

She told me I'd become a millionaire because dance partners were scarce those days šŸ˜‚
