About Me

¡Hola!

My name is Andy. I come from across the Andes, overwatched by the beautiful Illimani, and I am a Computer Systems Engineer, graduated from Universidad Privada Boliviana.

I started programming when I was 14 years old. My career got kickstarted thanks to a website called Neoseeker. Neoseeker is one of the few old-style internet forums that is still around today. Neoseeker is a gaming website, and I joined the website because, well, I wanted to talk about videogames. However, little did I know that it would kickstart my programming career thanks to the fact it allows you to build and host a small HTML webpage on your profile. Thanks to the small, but active, programmer community on the website, I was able to extend my programming knowledge from simple HTML websites all the way up to native applications and backend development.

Throughout the years I have been writing code, I have played around with many technologies and languages. I have worked with web frontends, PHP backends, NodeJS apps - but, ultimately, my heart belongs to Apple technologies, and I have been writing iOS apps for almost 15 years as of 2025. I have deployed my own apps to the App Store, and I have also helped others build and deploy theirs.

My professional career started with me freelancing for different people in the early to mid 2010’s. I helped both Bolivian clients and American clients improve and deploy their apps. By 2017, I really thought it was time for me to finish my college degree, and I stopped working to focus on my studies and finally finish all my courses in 2018. Shortly after, I started working for Banco Nacional de Bolivia. I started as an iOS Developer in 2019, and eventually got promoted to Software Architect in 2021. I was in charge of overseeing the development of all their mobile apps for both iOS and Android.

I continued working with financial services after I left Banco Nacional de Bolivia, this time with Sharetec, a company that builds credit union software for multiple banking institutions in the USA, as a contractor through Blue Trail Software.

As of 2025, I am currently involved in the aircraft maintenance industry working for Trax, a company that developers software to aid aircraft maintenance personnel with their day to day tasks. Trax currently builds and deploys iPads apps for multiple airlines in the world, including some big ones like Southwest and Qatar Airlines.

In 2022, I published my first book, making it one of my favorite projects to date.
