Some background information:
I am originally from
Argentina,
I was born in the city of
Mendoza,
a city famous because it is the capital of
the province where the
Mt. Aconcagua is
located. The Aconcagua, with almost 7000 meters (22850 feet) is the
taller mount in the Americas.
My parents' make crafts, both of them
are into woodworking. We lived for four
years in Patagonia in the early
eighties.
Nevertheless, I was
raised in another
city in Argentina,
Córdoba.
There I went to a traditional (more than 300 years old) public secondary
school, the
Colegio Nacional de Monserrat
where I studied Latin and
Ancient Greek.
In Córdoba I also did my undergrad, at the
Universidad Nacional de
Córdoba.
I pursued a Computer Science career with a strong emphasis in Logic
and theoretical background at the
Fa.M.A.F., Facultad
de Matemática, Astronomía y Física
(Mathematics, Astronomy and Physics School). The outcome of those
five years of studies was a title of Licenciado en
Computación.
My undergrad
thesis
(in Spanish) was under the
direction of the
Dr. Javier
Blanco
on the building of a parser for a subset of the Spanish language in
Haskell,
a lazy functional language, using
monads
as
parser
combinators.
The linguistic background used was the one of the
lexical functional grammars (LFG).
Besides that, I worked one year in web
programming at
NC Editora
and taught three semesters as a part-time instructor at the
Universidad
Empresarial Siglo 21.
