I'm Juan Paulo, but you can call me just J.P.. I learned Full-Stack Web Development at Microverse (highly recommended). I'm currently working as a Consultant at Apex Systems. I'm also bootstrapping an EdTech Startup (check here).
🎯 My goal is to develop innovative learning materials for high school students
and shorten the achievement gap in Latin America.
I studied Linguistics at National School of Anthropology and History, and Sociology at National Autonomous University of Mexico. It could sound that I did a career shift into Web Development, but I didn't. My pregraduate research work was about the language policies in the education system of Mexico. I learned Web Development because I considerer it as a powerful tool to deliver better policies in the education system.
Right now, my main project is the company that I founded: Daiuk.
I showcase my Full-Stack Web Development projects here.
I'm also a sporadical contributor of cultural magazines as Nexos; and a regular contributor of tech-related blogs such as Hackernoon.
I have drafted a novel and a book of short stories. I would like to have a long vacation to finish those books.
I love writing, and I host a Shut & Write Meet Up at Guadalajara. I'm not bad, I even won second place in a short stories contest! (if you read in Spanish, I hope you can enjoy it).
I like to read science fiction, realism, and pop science books. 📚
For a long time, my favorite sport was chess. But as I spend a lot of time in a chair, I rarely play chess now. My current hobbies are riding the bicycle and skating. However, I am always ready for a chess match. Challenge me! ♟️ 🦾
