Diego Algorta | aka "the curious"

Started programming at 8 years old when his mother bought him a TK-85 computer. Back in 2003 Diego discovered the ruby programming language in his search of a smalltalk-like feeling. Although it wasn't until 2006 that he got really immersed into the Rails community and started freelancing, having taught OOP&D at university feels good to know he was one of those that saw the power in ruby before Rails took the scene. Besides programming with ruby and other languages, he has been doing a myriad of linux sysadmin work since 2001.

Diego is a family man who enjoys weekends with his 2 children, wife and Airedale Terrier "Cala".

Daniel Cadenas | aka "the lone rider"
